    03/02/2023 10:00 AM 03/31/2023 05:00 PM America/Boise ECHO Jaume Plensa is renowned for his monumental and psychologically engaging public art. His sculpture Echo is named for the mountain nymph of Greek mythology who offended the goddess Hera—she kept her engaged in conversation and prevented her from spying on one of Zeus’ amours. To punish Echo, Hera deprived the nymph of speech, except for the ability to repeat the last words spoken by another. Plensa created this monumental head of Echo with her eyes closed, seemingly listening or in a state of meditation. The work is situated on the shoreline of the park, where Echo looks out over Puget Sound in the direction of Mount Olympus.Event LinksWebsite: https://go.evvnt.com/1591976-0 Details & Tickets: https://www.upcomingevents.com/seattle/events/olympic-sculpture-park/echo-90392?ref=uceaddevent Olympic Sculpture Park, 2901 Western Avenue, Seattle, WA, 98121
