Community Photo of the Week: “Ecstasy” at American Steel

on April 11, 2012

Oakland North is continuing with our feature. Every week, we will publish a photo submitted by one of our readers. This week’s photo is by David Bayless.

Bayless snapped this photo of artist Karen Cusolito’s sculpture “Ecstasy.” “The sculpture itself first caught my eye as I was driving past American Steel studios on Mandela Parkway,” Bayless wrote in an e-mail. “The first time I saw it, I did a double take.  I made a quick, but legal, u-turn to show it to my wife and four-year-old son. He was intrigued about how it was made.”
