Airport ART in Ft. Lauderdale

Maybe it was because I was on the phone, engaged in thought process, task oriented.  Or maybe I have no sense of art.  I dunno, but this just caught me by surprise, actually stopped me dead in my tracks.  I had to get off the phone w/ lil Chris to focus and process what the hell this was.  Armani says it's a famous sculptor/artisan, which makes sense I guess.  Why else would they give them an entire airport glassed-in room to display their work.

But I still don't get it.  It kinda made me sad.  Fat dude moping on the beach?  I mean he looked SUPER realistic, like I literally thought some dude was kickin' it inside this glass room, listening to some depressing song on his iPod.  Is this my happy welcome to Ft. Lauderdale, Flair-i-duh?
