Artwork Description:
The giraffe is a sculpture symbolizing a long-necked animal. It is simply a reused clothing hanger with attached aluminum vertebrae and plastic tube - a reminder of a spinal cord and esophagus. On the top, it has an attached likeness of a crown instead of the notion of a giraffe head. But it is still a giraffe, a king of animals, the only species with such a long neck, as only most dinosaurs had. The colors here are white, silver, and orange.
