Remember playing "I Spy" as a kid? Well, imagine trying to spy THIS! Tucked away in the heart of downtown Dallas, Texas is a sight that'll have you doing a double-take: a GIANT, 30-foot-tall eyeball sculpture!
Yep, you read that right. It's not every day you stumble upon a larger-than-life eye staring back at you, but that's part of what makes this quirky landmark so much fun.
The Eye That Never Sleeps (Or Blinks!)
This eye-catching sculpture, simply titled "Eye," is the brainchild of artist Tony Tasset. Made of fiberglass, it's incredibly detailed, with realistic red veins and a mesmerizing, colorful iris. You might even find yourself wondering if it can actually see you!
More Than Meets the Eye?
People often ask Tony if there's a deep, hidden meaning behind his creation. But the truth is, he just wanted to make something awesome! And let's be honest, he definitely succeeded.
From Chicago to St. Louis...and Finally, Dallas!
The giant eye has been on quite the journey! Before settling down in Dallas, it spent time turning heads in Chicago and St. Louis. It took a whole week and a half to install in its current home, so you know it's here to stay!
Ready for an Epic Staring Contest?
If you're ever in Dallas, be sure to add the giant eyeball to your must-see list. It's the perfect spot for a fun photo op and a chance to see art that's anything but ordinary. Just try not to blink – you wouldn't want to miss a thing!
