The beautiful sculpture form, which is located in the Jackson Park fountain, is the work of Mr. Hans Hennecke who donated his art to the City of Windsor. Mr. Hennecke explained the sculpture work represents bilingualism. If you view the sculpture you will see two “tongues” a “mother tongue” and a “younger tongue” coming from the base, and if you were to move to the rear of the “mother tongue” you will find the sculpture has been constructed to look like the torso of a woman.
