Thought to be making his way home to his installation site in Colorado Springs, 8’ tall sculpture, Mr Toolman, was ship wrecked and washed ashore on a tiny island and was immediately staked to the ground by hundreds of its frightened tiny inhabitants.
Intense negotiations failed to sway the little people to release him until the mayor of the nearby seaside vacation community cited municipal code sections C-113 and D216-b which clearly state that all large creatures washed ashore named Gulliver are welcome. Mr Toolman proclaimed that he was indeed Gulliver and that he was traveling and merely had a run in with a crazy white whale and meant no disrespect by not having an invitation. All was well until he asked for suntan lotion, nachos and a hammock. He was given a medal and politely asked to leave and is again headed for his new home.
