Cavewoman sculpture designed as companion to Minneapolis’ Zug Zug found in St. Paul

The female companion of a caveman sculpture that mysteriously appeared in a Minneapolis park last month has now been found in St. Paul.

Zara, a clay cavewoman encased in fake ice, was spotted in Crosbyfarm Park. She was created as a companion to Zug Zug, who captured the attention of those passing through Theodore Wirth Park.

Ian Molloy-Busse, one of the sculptors involved in the project, said he wanted Minnesotans to get outdoors and find her.

"Our goal of this piece was to … both draw people out into the natural world so they could enjoy nature’s beauty as well as to communicate a moving image … a still life frozen in time of a woman in the prime of her power," Molloy-Busse said.
