Sculpture at Del Ray Central Apartments in Alexandria, VA
October 27th, 2010 Categories: Arlandria, Del Ray
This concrete and marble sculpture, “Three Eggs in Space” stands at the intersection of Mt. Vernon and Commonwealth, on the site of the Del Ray Central Apartments.
Commissioned as public art, the sculpture by artist Karen Bailey, represents motherhood. The large concrete oval is the mother, the smaller marble egg is the baby.
An important transition area for the north end of Del Ray into Arlandria, this sculpture is sure to become a geographic landmark as development of the Calvert moves forward.

That thing is hideous. It should have been left behind in the early 1970s. “Art”.
It’s not exactly my cup of tea either but then they didn’t ask me!
