The whimsical sea inspired high back chairs are the work of Guadalajara native Alejandro Colunga.This installation made its debut on the Malecón in 1997. One chair is crowned by an octopus and another by what may be a seahorse. One of the original chairs surrendered to the forces of Hurricane Kenna and was replaced with a stunning replacement that appropriately pays homage to the strength of the sea. Colungna studied various subjects in the university, but he is a self-taught artist. Besides the Malecón you can find Colunga's work throughout Mexico, the US, Europe and South America.
