Weaving Fence and Horn

[JAS_Photo]

I always thought of the sculpture as a dinosaur's spine but it is in fact an abstract concept of a rocky mountain sheep's horn and snow fence conceived by artist John McEwen and Frank Wong of TransCanada PipeLines Limited. The Sculpture sits in front of the TransCanada Tower at 1st Street and 4th avenue S.W. Constructed in 2002, it is comprised entirely of recycled steel and has a footprint of 30 X 13 Ft. and rises to a height of 24 feet.

Cool sculpture. I can see the likeness to the dinosaur skeleton too (although maybe an arthritic one based on the shape of the spine :laughing:). Really interesting angle you have captured

I'm going with your interpretation - it's a dinosaur spine. Cool looking sculpture.
