“Écoute” (Listen) by Henri de Miller, 1986
Place René-Cassin Quartier des Halles, 1st arrondissement
Paris, July 2008
“‘Écoute’ is a sculpture by the French artist Henri de Miller (1953-1999) in Paris. It is a giant stone head with cupped hand in front of the Church of St-Eustache.[1] It is near to another sculpture by the same artist; a very large sundial designed by the astronomer Dandrel, in the jardin Nelson-Mandela (formerly the Jardin des Halles), above the Forum des Halles.” (Écoute, Wikipedia)

Such good timing! I'm thinking of the fairy tales of giants eating children. Poor girl! On the other "hand," it looks like she's going to pounce on someone walking by. There's so much to think about here that I almost didn't notice how weird it is to have a round head and hand simply lying in the square!
J'adore !
"Appare!" means...
You're marvelous!
