Expanding spray foam? Should use FlexSeal.
The painted wood sculpture of two breaching whales by artists Jorge Rodriguez, Neftali Palomares and Javier Campos was crafted in 2016, But less than a decade later, the art piece appears to be rotting from the inside out. Numerous cavities are present, the paint is worn, and a pectoral fin of one of the whales recently fell off.
“Maybe it’s time to retire the whales,” one resident said on social media after seeing their condition.
A campaign to raise $9,000 to pay for the piece and fund future maintenance was launched in 2016. It’s unclear if any of that money remains.
What about replacing the antennae on the little girl in the Butterfly Parade statues in front of the post office? Can we start a campaign to replace them? Shoot, the bird guy in front of the Chamber Of Commerce was repaired faster than a train ride to Maine.
