O/T Sculpture

[CTMilller]

Have they definitely announced it as being in All Saints square? I thought the location was yet to be decided.

At the moment I'm thinking there's a nice spot just behind the old Millmoor ground...

Scatter some cuddly toys at the bottom of it , charge 50p and it'll make a fortune with the kids

"Plans have been submitted for a new floral-themed sculpture in Rotherham town centre.

The sculpture, by James Capper, is inspired by the camellias brought to nearby Wentworth Woodhouse in the 18th Century.

The 26ft (8m) statue, named Camellia, features petals that react to the movement of light.

If approved, the sculpture will take pride of place in the town's All Saints Square.

The site could also be used as a market pitch or event space, according to the plans."

That’ll probably be better suited to the Town

On that point, it does look like a design that would look tatty after a few months.

Like those ‘ fields of corn” yellow girders they stuck on the “ rhymers’ roundabout

Looks like it has an ideal spot on top for the obligatory traffic cone.

Would be better with a big screen tv in all saints square...oh wait.

Looks like Barnsley is getting its dose of culture sculptures/artworks as well:

Are they trying to civilise the North?
