Metalmorphosis - Giant Head On March 24, 2010, Metalmorphosis was still available for pictures. [David Scott, 03/25/2010][RA: It's art, but with a big liquid metal nod to Lawnmower Man and the Terminator.]
Metalmorphosis - Giant Head Artist David Cerny has long been well-known in art circles in both the Czech Republic and abroad, but it has been a while since he made headlines with a new public sculpture. No longer. Witness "Metalmorphosis," a piece which forms part of a public fountain at an office park in the US city of Charlotte. The piece is a 22-ft. tall structure with horizontally-moving stainless-steel plates which form, and re-form, a giant metal head. [Dan, 07/03/2009][RA: This giant head is at its most ominous when photographed at night.]
