Description
Axeltree is a steel sculpture painted red-orange. The statue is 84 in x 144 in x 110 in.[1]
The sculpture is made up of a large flat disk on its side connected to a wide tube base. A smaller concave disk is set perpendicular to the larger disk and is connected to the base by a narrow, curved tube. A jagged tube protrudes from the tube that connects the smaller disk and extends to the other side of the base.[2]
