A rusty coloured metal statue of a herring girl, a woman holding two herring in each hand and wearing a headscarf. She is made of welded pieces of metal with the seams visible as if a nod to the industrial area. Just above her left hand a (real) seagull drifted across the blue sky as though watching for leftovers.
