Hood Ornament




Sculpture of an eagle outside Grand Central Terminal at 42nd Street and Vanderbilt Avenue/Park Avenue in Manhattan. The venerable Chrysler Building looms in the distance. So..my concept was to connect the eagle to Chrysler as a "hood ornament", with a double meaning for "neighbor'hood' ornament". I know, a little abstract, but that was my late night brain at work.
