Anatomically Questionable Mermaid Statue Is Causing A Stir For Being Too Horny

There’s nothing wrong with public art, generally speaking. Most towns have some kind of art from local artists, sculptures being the most prominent. But which art is fit for everyone to be seeing all the time?

Recently, a fishing village in southern Italy had to learn the hard way that not all art is for everyone. Especially mermaids that look like they were made by a hornier than normal anime fan.

The sculptor studied at Monopoli’s Luigi Rosso art school, and the professor, Adolfo Marciano, defended the busty mermaid.

“The students got together and came up with the idea of a mermaid, as a representation of reality, in this case of the female body. The council was shown the scale model and said it was good, and then decided the completed sculpture would be placed in the square.”

People were not convinced.
