The Watcher is a metal sculpture on the side of the main quad at Cowell College at UC, Santa Cruz in Santa Cruz, California. It's kind of hard to find because it's almost obscured by some large potted plants with leaves that cover the base of the art piece. The wooden base of the sculpture is about 3-feet tall, with a top surface 2-feet by 1.5-feet. The sculpture is an abstract piece made from what looks to be bronze. The sculpture has three thin legs on a metal base supporting an irregular shaped, somewhat blocky-like piece. The sculpture is approximately 2.5-feet tall, 1.25-feet wide and 10 inches thick.
