A response

For a short while – this monument was a signal to the neighbours

Outward looking – towards a 21st century city

Lighting up the night sky on the way to the metro centre

Looking at it now, you wonder why they put it where they did

Yes, it looks nice – Yes, you consider it art – but only traffic appreciates it
