Sculpture: Triceracopter


"Triceracopter" by Cincinnati-based sculptor Patricia Renick, 1977.

The Triceracopter combines a triceratopr and a US Army Hughes OH-6 Cayuse helicopter. It was created by Renick in 1977 as a response to the Vietman War.
She stated, “I did not see the work as a celebration, but as a cautionary tale, an expression of hope for the end of war.” In 2011, this unique species finally found a home in University of Cincinnati’s Langsam Library.
