It is maintained by the Regional Arts & Culture Council.[1] Description and historyDaddy Long Legs (2006) was designed by Mel Katz and installed along the Portland Transit Mall at the intersection of Southwest 6th Avenue and Stark in downtown Portland. Laser cutting was completed by BBC Steel in Canby, masking was executed by Aztec Sign and Graphics, and painting was done by Dura Industries, both based in Portland, respectively. The aluminum sculpture is flat but appears dimensional due to its painted interior shapes. The artist named the work Daddy Long Legs because of its "elongated black shapes and welded base plates", which are reminiscent of pant legs.[2]ReceptionThe sculpture has been called "colorful and modern" and has been included in at least one published walking tour of Portland.[3] See also
