Most sculptors agonize over how their work looks from all angles. There are usually months of iterating through versions of different sizes to check what every possible perspective conveys.

I genuinely don't understand how this studio could have missed that this angle would become a meme and a source of mockery.

I mean, even this worst angle doesn't look terribly phallic in person. It's really something that comes across a lot more in the photos.

I mean I thought it looked worse in person. The questionable angle was undeniable.

The secret ingredient is money laundering, the art is secondary to moving assets around.

That's arguably the point. Creates interest through controversy. I'd be amazed if they didn't incorporate it and of course deny that.
