This 1999 work by Niki de Saint Phalle is made of fiberglass, resin steel armature, ceramic tiles, stained and painted mirrored glass and tumbled stones. It is entitled It depicts a large multi-colored cat sitting human-style---or is it just the cat's front paws being depicted...hard to tell. Inside the center is a bench. There are also two "windows" on either side permitting children to climb all over and through the work..which is expected since the accompanying sign adds: "Ages 2-12".
