This is my un-edited photo of two "stainless-steel pods of the Ohr O'Keefe complex, designed to dance among the live oaks"
Located in Biloxi, Mississippi, the Ohr O'Keefe Museum is a non-profit art museum and arts center dedicated to the late ceramics artist George E. Ohr. Although there are rotating exhibits, the centerpiece is a collection of fancifully glazed ceramics by George Ohr, the self-described “mad potter of Biloxi” who died in 1918 and is regarded as a forerunner of the American modern art movement.
The museum is named for both Ohr and Annette O'Keefe, the late wife of former Biloxi mayor Jeremiah O'Keefe. Her name was appended to the museum in recognition of the family's ongoing contributions, which exceed 1.8 million dollars. The museum was designed by Frank Gehry Partners.

When I saw this museum with my own eyes, I couldn't see the beauty of it. Your picture captures it.

You are so right as these structues do need to have the live oaks to make them fit into the landscape - they are most graphically different
