Statue: Hammering Man

This is the statue "Hammering Man" by Jonathan Borofsky. It's dated 1992 and made of painted steel. It is 48 feet high. It's located on the southwest corner of the Seattle Art Museum.

It's iconic to downtown Seattle and more can be read on the Seattle Art Musuem's website. I like the determination and routine this statue represents to me. I like how the finish is fading to a soft black. Interesting juxtaposition of this statue of an industrial worker made of steel in a town of knowledge-based workers.
