This tall abstract sculpture on the OSU campus can be found on the south side of Bartlett Center for the Visual Arts. This is the far east side of campus, just south of the Boone Pickens Stadium.
Each of the two components (the blue piece and the rust-colored piece) touch down on two points, but because one leg of each component joins together as it touches down, the sculpture appears tripodal.
The rust piece is shorter than the blue one, and there is a visual gap between them as you look at the sculpture from the east. The piece is in a brick-lined entrance to the campus building.
