Why does the charlotte airport's queen charlotte statue look like it's been kicked in the stomach?

There have often been many assumptions made about why the sculpture is shaped the way it is. Some believe it is bent like a willow branch, appearing to be held aloft by the wind. Raymond Kaskey, the sculptor, simply says that he made her "leaning backward in the wind because it seemed appropriate for an airport…and the column sets her as a stationary weather vane."
