This sculpture...apparently cast in cement (painted black) depicts a bald nude middle-aged woman who is cupping her cheek in her right palm. She looks out with a worried look. The work is set on a tree stump about 4 feet high and has the word "Telurica" carved on the tree stump and painted white. "Telurica" is not a proper word in Spanish...so, perhaps it is the proper name or place...but there is no information at the site explaing the piece or giving the artist or date.
Unfortunately the work has been defaced with grafitti.
