This work looks like a graveyard for geometric shapes. Set out over a lawn, about twenty separate, apparently randomly spaced, 6-8 inch posts each hold a different geometric object...cyclinders, rectangles, cut cylinders, arches, etc. All the objects are painted white. The 1985 steel and polyurethane sculpture is by French artist Alain Kirili (born 1946).
