Hand + Bird

Passed by this today with Emily...it appears to be a hand, but also has a bird head... Remember in middle school when your teacher would give you different colored construction paper and you would outline your hand and then turn the thumb into a turkey head and give it to your parents to decorate the house for Thanksgiving? Maybe that's what this is...

"Los Guardianes del hierro"

Two days ago I was going for a run on Paseo del Parque and I noticed these huge structures set up across the street. It seemed that they were giant metal soldiers sitting down in a line. I went back yesterday to investigate further and saw that it is an exhibition by the artist Xavier Mascaró. It is called "Los Guardianes del hierro" and it is to honor the memory of a dead civilization and the passing of time. It has only appeared in Paris and now in Málaga.
