The Floozie in the Jacuzzi

In 1993, Victoria Square (Birmingham, England) was pedestrianised and remodelled. This included the installation of a massive water feature.

Sat in the upper pool, is a monumental female figure representing the life force. The figure has been nicknamed 'The Floozie in the Jacuzzi' and weighs 1.75 tonnes.

The official name of this artwork is "The River"

The River is also a fountain - one of the largest in Europe - with a flow of 3,000 gallons per minute.
