Upside Down - Sulaymaniyah, Iraq - Figurative Public Sculpture on Waymarking.com

On the garden of Culture Factory a set of three statues is on display. The place used to be a cigarette factory and it was converted. The site is now home to film studios, exhibition halls, seminar spaces, photography labs, innovation hubs, a climbing wall, and environmental initiatives. It also hosts festivals, concerts, book fairs, and creative residencies.

So the one which really catches the eye is the central sculpture, which portrays a human figure literally upside down, with its head on a huge open book. There is a plaque, but being in Kurdish make it virtually illegible for the global audience.
