ReplyDeleteWilliam - Sadly enough, my impression is that people around here mostly take the public art for granted and don't seem to appreciate it much. Jeddah is a city with many amazing public art sculptures, which were neglected for many years. Some were graffitied, many were in disrepair, some were vandalized. I am happy that efforts have been made to rectify the situation, but I still sense a lack of appreciation from the public.
DeleteSadly it's going to be removed Because they're going to build a bridge there
ReplyDeleteI'm sure they will just relocate it, as they have many other sculptures like the Bicycle and ones on the Corniche. They won't just trash it.
DeleteInteresting! Jeddah on blogging world is quite a surprise! great going...happy blogging!
