Constructed Head No. 2, Naum Gabo
[initial reaction]
It looks like a transformer, also an alien really. It did not look like anything until you got in front of it. Also it has multiple eyes and made out of metal. The sculpture looks like a smart man too, the sculpture has small lips too.

Wow, lots of metal. Painful! Looks like a human tornado. We came to the conclusion that it looks cool and looks like a human tornado made out of metal sticks.
