"Symbiosis" by James Thomas
I see this sculpture almost everyday on the way to work and I have always enjoyed the mixture of flowing curves and abrupt edges, it mimics the interchange where it sits have cars merging off I-20 and onto Fairfield Street and Commerce Street. It isn't the most friendly location to visit in person, there is no parking within two blocks and you might get squished crossing Commerce St., but it was fun for me to try. Looking at pictures of when it was originally installed, it had much darker blue paint on the more vertical pieces.
James Thomas is an artist and sculptor from Louisiana and has pieces all on display all over Louisiana. Many of his metal sculptures seem very light and flowing, almost to defy gravity. Check out Mr. Thomas' website at
