“Poseidon”, Hack Kampmanns Plads, Aarhus - 31 May 2024 by Cliff Jones, on Flickr
“The shape of this bronze sculpture was formed by the sea when 30 kilos of molten bronze was poured into the harbour basin next to Dokk1, creating thousands of unique pieces of bronze.

The statue is located next to Pakhus13 and the adjacent customs chamber for the port of Aarhus.”
