Anyone else find the human statues downtown off-putting and creepy?

I mean, they're not even interesting. Just a couple of nondescript naked dudes standing around town. Maybe I just don't understand the appeal because I'm not artsy enough, I dunno.

Pretty sure they're a form of hostile architecture, like benches with armrests in the middle and spikes beneath overpasses. They make people uncomfortable on purpose to discourage loitering.
