The English tourist harassed the statue that looked like a real woman.

The realistic young woman statue created by British sculptor Rory Macbeth faced an unexpected issue during its tour in England. The 57-year-old artist explained that the wax statue, which he named "Flora," was constantly harassed by men and subjected to disturbing behavior.

Macbeth made great efforts to make the statue as realistic as possible. He dressed Flora in a white shawl, adorned her wrist with beads, and placed flowers in her hand. These details cause the statue to be perceived as a real person.

The artist noted that most people reacted positively to the statue, but some men exhibited inappropriate behavior. "Most people think she is real and want to touch her. However, touching without permission is problematic behavior and surprisingly common," he added.

Macbeth expressed that this experience helped people understand the extent of harassment that women face in their daily lives. The artist, who exhibited the statue in various cities such as Leeds, York, and Glasgow, also mentioned that people claimed Flora was breathing or moving.

This incident highlights the prevalence of harassment and disturbing behavior towards women in society while emphasizing the importance of shedding light on social issues through art.
