Long Description:
This frightening piece of work was originally in front of the now-extinct KMart World Headquarters, about a mile away. Two half heads facing in opposite directions are separated by a reflective piece of glass, so that the observer sees a complete head on both sides. Holes in the head give a view inside the corporate mind. It was originally called "Corporate Head", but now the plaque suggests it is "Reflective Head".
