I remember seeing this in March when I got off of park street, and it scared the crap out of me. Does anyone know who made it and why? Just why?

There were several temporary art pieces installed around there last year, including this one.

It's art. Goes with the clown stuck between some buildings.

Big Cardiology installed this piece

Saw the clowns as well. Really fucked me up for a second haha.

This some lame art. Your reaction is intended, which seems ....lame.
