"I smell a rat here?"... I suppose it is much more noble to use a 'gallows' rather than a rolled up newspaper (albeit a very large newspaper!..) so... where can I buy one of those? ~ Regards Melbob

Thanks, Nico and Michael.

When I saw sculpture I wondered what it was. "Mousetrap" is what I saw. Alas, my daughter tells me that is supposed to be a tribute to Mother Teresa. I guess what I saw as a stylized mouse is a stylized nun's habit. I personally like the whimsy of mousetrap better.

Nicely seen, Pops. I particularly like the centered composition since the sculpture has its own elements to offset it. -Michael

Weird and wonderful, Pops! And a great title in addition... not in a million years would I have thought "mouse trap", but now that you mentioned it, I cannot see anything else in the sculpture. I guess the artist might be disappointed in case he/she had something much "deeper" in mind? :-) Definitely blue! Compliments and regards jnconradie
