This is peak San Francisco right here:
[Warning: Gross]
A 45-foot-tall statue of a naked woman, everyone!
And hey, being in San Fran, I'm just surprised it's not a guy!!
Some info:
The city officially unveiled ‘R-Evolution,' a massive sculpture of a woman at Embarcadero Plaza, on Thursday near the Ferry Building. The sculpture stands 45 feet tall and weighs about 32,000 pounds.
…
The sculpture was made by Petaluma artist Marco Cochrane a decade ago on Treasure Island and is comprised of 55,000 welded connections. The sculpture first debuted at Burning Man in 2015.
They had a big party last night to welcome the sculpture, complete with "DJs, dancing, local artists, and hundreds of onlookers."
And get this: "R-Evolution" is just the beginning of this "big art" theme about to hit the streets of San Francisco. The city wants to erect 100 of these things around town, all to be over ten feet tall.
The male artist's initial motivation for the piece - I kid you not - was to "bring goddess energy into the world."
From the artist himself:
R-Evolution is more than a sculpture; it's a 45-foot tall symbol of feminine strength and liberation. After her stay in Miami Beach, FL in 2024, she will soon stand at Union Square in San Francisco in 2025.
With this piece, Model Deja Solis explores and expresses what she feels like when she can just be...a whole person... a woman, radiating her energy into the world calm.. just breathing.
Bro, San Francisco is a straight-up parody and I love it!
