On my last visit to Santa Fe, I was driving through a residential neighborhood when I spotted these white abstract sculptures in someone’s front yard. I found them so striking and unusual that I decided to pull over and walk back for a closer look.<\/p>\n

The street is Old Santa Fe Trail, near the intersection with Cam Cacto Street … there’s a wall out front, so there’s not really a view of the house behind the wall with these sculptures. I was trying to get a sense of whether an artist lives there (who would have made these), but I’m not able to come up with any concrete evidence.<\/p>\n

It’s hard to know what these are made of, I didn’t linger too long out front in case there were security cameras or anyone wondering what I was doing – although if someone did ask, I’d tell the truth – just admiring the cool sculpture! Here’s another view from a different angle:<\/p>\n
