A 15 meter tall man's head made of copper

I attended my son Marcus' field trip to NuArt Art Park here in Bandung two days ago. The place hosts a permanent gallery of sculptures made by a Balinese artist Nyoman Nuarta. We were lucky enough to meet up with the artist himself and the kids all, - about 50 of them, - wanted his autograph. His work shop is also there. Currently he is working on a statue, which at 80 meters is supposed to be the tallest statue of man in the world! You can see the 15 meter tall head of the statue in the pictures and video here.

Most of his art is made of copper and other metals. The finnished statue is going to be standing on top of a huge hotel in northern Sumatra, which to me looked like Noah's Ark. From the brochure I saw the hotel looked like maybe a seven stories high yacht and is itself located on top of a mountain overlooking the ocean. Quite impressive I must say!
