Rufus pecanosaurus

When I first saw these tall red things at Reid Park in Tucson, Arizona,
I didn't know what they were.
Alien figures...exposed roots...giant blood vessels?
Later, I learned the full title of this playful life-sized 1988 piece:
Inverted Pecans in Ceremonial Red (Rufus pecanosaurus)
Stripped of their bark, five pecan trees
are painted red and installed upside down.

More information from Smithsonian Art Museum Research Information System (SIRIS).
