Legs Raise Eyebrows
People in Henderson, N.C. are talking about the massive sculpture of a woman's legs, spread open on Welcome Avenue. At first glance, it looks more like something you'd find at a strip club, instead of a quiet neighborhood. A backhoe contractor, Ricky Pearce poured concrete into hand-drawn molds to create the 40-ton, 17-foot-high legs. Then, he lifted them into place with a crane. "The project took about three years," Pearce said. "I was inspired by Marilyn Monroe's legs, with the skirt blowing." # posted by masquerader @ 16:12 ::
