this is an awesome sculpture. the graffiti almost adds to the message and the content somehow. A mutated twist to the artists original intent. And now your photo of the sculpture/grafitti art makes this a three level image.
Artist Reply: Thanks for your kind comments, John.
Artist Reply: Hi
You asked where I shot this image - it's in the Atacama Desert, probably the driest place on earth, in Northern Chile. It's nearish to the Tropic of Capricorn.
It's a huge structure, a person would only come up as high as perhaps '2002' which is grafittied in red on the right hand side. Well worth a visit if you get the chance. It was one of the more awe-inspiring things I encountered while I was travelling there, just a huge stone hand looming up out of nowhere in the desert - amazing!
