Waiting For Death

Whilst visiting Cobden Chambers, I came across another one of the sculptures that have been made by apprentices.

I'm not sure if I like this one or not.  It looks a bit morbid to me, and the hole in his chest reminds me of the scene in Alien, when the monster bursts out of John Hurt.

I once saw a fantastic spoof of that scene on TV, where instead of it being a baby alien, it was Sooty!

Hangin' On The Telephone

Walking through the Lace Market, I came across this giant sculpture of a telephone handset.

It's part of a street art exhibition that has been created by students at the Confetti Institute of Creative Technicians, and has been done to promote apprenticeships.

There are apparently around a dozen sculptures dotted across the city. So it will be interesting to see what else the students have created.
