Another guest post from !animals@lemmy.world as I slowly make my way through the archives...
This is a 25-foot statue of the Hindu deity Ganesha, meticulously crafted entirely out of green bananas. Created by the Natraj Club in Sambalpur, Odisha, India, the sculpture utilized over 5 tons of bananas. The banana sculpture is designed to be eco-friendly, with the fruit distributed to devotees and the needy after the festival concludes. --courtesy of the Evil Empire
And remember-- next time you take a photo of something to be shared on the internet, place a Banana-Ganesha next to it to help add scale. :D
This statue menaces with spikes of banana.
