Sculpture in Brea, CA

This metal piece (painted Terra cotta) is "Candelabra" by John Oukavic. It is very close to Imperial Highway, but the color makes it blend a bit with the surrounding buildings.
As you can see, taggers have no respect and will paint on anything.

These two pieces can be seen in the background of the first picture on this page. They are "Kaikou Series - IV and XVI. As you can see in the other picture they sit up on a rise and out from the buildings, so they are among the most noticeable pieces around town.

This could well be a sculpture, don't you think? Maybe "Inch Worm X3". It is actually a bicycle rack right outside a Starbucks.

No matter what it really is-I just love the idea of the inch worm.
