Saturday scenery: mythical monster alert

The centaur is a creature of Greek myth, half-human, half horse. Traditionally, we assume it is male. Sometimes an image of a centaur boasts a beard. After all, the monster is an image of power. Laura Kimpton's 2017 welded metal statue projects another kind of power, still awesome, fearsome -- but beyond gender.

This installation is in San Francisco's new Dogpatch neighborhood. Encountered while Walking San Francisco.
