Because of what is written below, in the spirit of pettyness (and frankly it's a better name) the sculpture will be referred to as "the bean".

Writer's note: please don't edit this out. The bean is a better name and surely I'm not the only one who thinks it'd be funny to only refer to it as that.

The bean deserves to be free

Here comes the light.

Stuart Semple has continued his work and created the lightest paint.

In conclusion, the sculpture shall forever be known as "the bean" to spite a man who gives the art world a bad name. Additionally, Stuart Semple is proof that heroes do exist and they are working to help in the fight against those who make the world a gloomier, more pretentious place.
