"The dramatic sculpture recalls a strange hybrid of a radio tower, a rocket ship and a tepee tricked out with Ortiz’s graphic signatures and visual nods to Selena (the words “Siempre Dreaming of You”) and the urban legends of the Donkey Lady and the chicken-footed Dancing Devil. If the chief purpose was to add visual interest to a former eyesore, mission accomplished. It’s an undeniable statement piece with pizzazz aplenty (some of the design elements even twirl in the wind like pinwheels), but there’s so much noise surrounding it (visual and otherwise) that it’s not exactly a destination where many would opt to linger."
