      They were among the most popular works in the Emscherkunst 2016 exhibition and among the few that have been preserved in the city: the sculptures by the Parisian artist duo Lucy and Jorge Orta from the series “Spirits of the Emscher Valley”.
      The aluminum figures tell stories that connect past, present and future. These include the “Totem with Magpie” and the “Bird Woman”.

        The woman seems to be taking off right away 😅👍 Probably for a personal sightseeing flight over the nearby Phoenixsee
