Benched

This is another sculpture by Patrick Amiot (click the label below to see more) which was out front of a gallery in the Yorkville neighbourhood. This depicts one of our beloved Toronto Maple Leafs players. Hockey is probably finished for the season as are all other sports.

    Well, this brought a smile to my face. How cute. He looks like he's seen something he doesn't like.

    He looks like he's afraid of your camera.

    A good deal of humor in this sculpture. Good one. Yes, for the time being all sports are cancelled.

    I think the NHL is done for the year.

    He looks rather nervous about going on the ice. From what I've seen of hockey the bench looks the safest place.

    He's getting a reprieve from the season.

    What a cool character. Too bad the coach benched him.

    Spring training (baseball) is done and probably the entire season.

    I love his sculptures! This one is fun...unless you're a hockey fan, mourning the season.

    He looks ra<ther frightened.
    Yes, here, too, games cancelled. But in the supermarket people come CLOSE.

    I can't remember a previous time when there were no sports at all going on. Weird.
