Reach For the Star

Washington DC isn’t just known as the place where they film Veep... they are also famous for their giant, terrifying statues. Suitably titled The Awakening, this particular piece features a 100 foot-tall giant emerging from the ground, his face twisted in an eternal scream.

Unbeknownst to myself, they moved this statue a few years ago from an isolated DC park to National Harbor, presumably so that more kids could walk around on his face. I happened to be in the area working on another project, and took the opportunity to snap some photos of the brute. Enjoy!
