Form and Space

I came across this statue when I was in Ybor with some friends. It caught my eye first for it being a fountain and then I started to look at it for all the animals worked into it. The most interesting part about it is that the male mermaid is all covered up staring at the female mermaid who is full frontal. I just thought it was ironic. After starting at the statue, that first brought us from the street, we started to look at the school, Tampa University, it’s a nice tactic to bring people from the street to come look at the school.
