Ants Invade Dubai

The bronze sculptures have been carefully placed around the grounds between the Emirates Towers and DIFC, Dubai International Financial Center. Sources say the bronze sculptures represent a larger-than-life message in a larger-than-life way.

American sculptor, Susan P. Cochran, has stirred up some interesting in Dubai with her giant ant colony that is digging around several international buildings. The assortment of aunts stand at 8 meters tall.

The bronze sculptures have been carefully placed around the grounds between the Emirates Towers and DIFC, Dubai International Financial Center.  Sources say the bronze sculptures represent a larger-than-life message in a larger-than-life way.

“These ants have a social message, they work together to build a strong community just like people are doing here in Dubai,” says Al Shroogi, a Dubai art supporter set to open a new gallery in May at DIFC. “This is so appropriate.”
