For some reason when I see this, I think of Atlas -- the Titan condemned to holding up the sky on his shoulders. Looks like the Titan involved in keeping the Earth's surface knit together was more inventive.
It's by Turkish artist Mehmet Ali Uysal. This giant wooden clip installation appeared in the Chaudfontaine park in Belgium, as part of a contemporary art exhibition and is a great demonstration of how everyday items can make wonderful subjects for artworks, big or small.
