OO that's HOt


This is one of my favorite public art sculptures.


"Walking to the Sky" can be seen on the Carnegie Mellon University main Campus in Pittsburgh.


Jonathan Borofsky is the creator of this in-kind donation to the University.  The seven-ton sculpture depicts a little girl, a businesswoman, a young man and several other individuals scaling a soaring 100-foot-tall stainless steel pole. Three people are looking upward at the base of the pole, which points to the east at a 75-degree angle.  Talk about inspiration
