"After coming back to Denver from Los Angeles, I wanted to create a sculpture that aligns with an initiative I believe in," says Hecker. "The Denver bike sharing program, with its commitment to this community and our environment, really was a perfect fit for my art."
The City of Denver obviously thought so, too, since they had no problem installing Hecker's one-of-a-kind piece next to their fancy automated bike station. We're hoping to see more B-cycle-inspired sculptures popping up around town. How about one of the DIA hell mustang riding on a cruiser bike?
