This gigantic red popsicle sculpture was created by lifelong artist Catherine Mayer. It was installed in Spring of 2011 and has been a popular stopping point for tourists and city denizens alike.

Taken from an online article from Catherine Mayer's website, this 17-foot steel and apoxy dessert sits on property owned by commercial real estate developer Martin Selig. Mayer has been working to make multi-sensory art that inspires positive reactions in the form of murals, animations and sculptures. The popsicle was perfect. Much of Mayer's commissioned Seattle art hangs as paintings or murals in the lobbies of businesses and even hospitals. The popsicle is her first piece of outdoor public art in downtown Seattle, but it won't be the last.
