Ultra, Steel sculpture in Schildersbuurt, Groningen, Netherlands
Ultra stands 8 meters tall and 4 meters wide, constructed of weathering steel, cast iron, and stainless steel at Emmasingel street.
The Municipality of Groningen commissioned artist Silvia B to create this public art piece, which was completed and installed in 2004.
The sculpture depicts a female figure on stilts, incorporating contemporary design elements that reflect modern societal trends and fashion statements.
The statue receives maintenance every seven years for its white-painted face, while the metal skirt undergoes cleaning procedures twice annually.
The sculpture began as an 8-centimeter model before being scaled up and transported by boat from Hardinxveld to its current location.
