Completed in 2012, Serpent d’ocĂ©an is a giant aluminum sea serpent skeleton by artist Huang Yong Ping, situated off the shore of the Loire River where it empties into the Bay of Biscay just outside of Nantes, France.

Measuring nearly 425 feet (130 meters) in length the curving skeleton mirrors the curves of the nearby Saint-Nazaire bridge and was created as a permanent work for the final Estuaire contemporary art exhibition in 2012.
