The sightline to the big bear is blocked by the play structure leaving this poor bear frozen in a futile search.

I hate to be the one going around correcting people, but the title is Karma Chameleon, and it's not nonsense words, the song does have a meaning.
(On top of that, most people don't seem to understand what the word karma means.)
It's clearly Karmann, Karmann, Karmann, Karmann, Karmann Ghiiiiiiiiiiaaaaaaa. Everyone knows that, sheesh...
 
Why does the big bear statue look like a memorial?
With the black stone, it feels like a solemn art object commemorating a sad event or something.

(unless the artist is comemorating last years Blue Jays season*)
A couple of pages back, there is a photo of a sign which explains what it's about. The bear is sitting on a throne. Since the bear is fictional, the statue is unlikely to be a memorial. Some have said it reminds them of the Lincoln Memorial; that's the only connection I can see.
 
^...it looks unsettling though. >.<
