As his eyesight deteriorated during his teens, South Korean artist Hong Seok Goh taught himself to use balloons to create sculptures so he could continue making art after going completely blind.

Since then, he has created balloon sculptures around the world, and this week he created one in Gallery Nucleus, 210 E. Main St. in Alhambra.

The 40-foot-long and 20-foot-tall sculpture will be on exhibit in the gallery noon-8 p.m. Sunday and then noon-7 p.m. Tuesday, at which point a public popping ceremony will be held to dismantle the sculpture.
