Motorway culture...


...travelling the M5 down to Devon, at junction 24 - the huge Willow man sculpture by Serena de la Hey fascinates me every time.  It appeared in 2001 and standing at over 12 metres is the tallest willow figure sculpture. Whenever  I pass it reminds me I still need to visit the Angel of the North by Antony Gormley, one of the best known in England.

The impact of sculpture in both public places and private gardens is immense and underestimated...

  1. Do you suppose it has running repairs? I can't imagine willow to be very durable over 8 years...
