It’s official: art is dead.
If you happen to be in Sugar Land, Texas, you’ll find a new bronze statue. It’s not of a historical figure or moment – it’s of two girls taking a selfie.
Rightfully, some residents aren’t thrilled about it.
The “Selfie Statue” is one item in a 10-piece collection donated by city resident Sandy Levin. ,Accordinng to Time, the Sugar Land Parks and Recreation Advisory Board claims that the collection is meant to depict “activities that occur in the Square.” Other statues show more classic hobbies like a man playing a guitar, but I guess this definitely happens too.
Of course, it’s become a photo destination already – whether you love it or hate it.
