A Giant Skeleton in Indianapolis Can Be Seen From Space

Imagine strolling through a park and stumbling upon a giant skeleton. That's just the beginning of Funky Bones' charm.

As Halloween is just around the corner, I'm excited to introduce you to Funky Bones.  Funky Bones is an art installation at the Virginia B. Fairbanks Art & Nature Park in Indianapolis, Indiana.  This is no ordinary skeleton as people use it for picnics. Funky Bones is a giant, measuring in at 39 feet wide and 69 feet long.  Funky Bones consists of 20 fiberglass benches that look like bones, giving the appearance of a skeleton lying down in an open field. Funky Bones comes from the mind of artist Joep Van Lieshou,t according to the Indy Art Guide,

With the bones emerging from the ground like archeologically revealed specimens the work reveals itself progressively upon approach. Funky Bones is designed to a site for resting, climbing, and picnicking.
