About

As a work of public art, one could do worse than an undulating iron wave, rippling and waving through the air like a massive flag atop a ship.

That's exactly what they have at this park in Cataluña, Spain. Whimsical, inspiring, and evocative of freedom, this massive public sculpture is well-loved by local residents.
