A wonderful sculpture that represents a swimmer that sits atop one of two man made hills which represents waves in the water. The sculpture is also surrounded by plants which keep people from getting close to the sculpture.

The swimmer sculpture is also appropriately located at a swimming pool which makes for excellent Connection.
