Here stand 100 statues which are cast from the artists own image... Anthony Gormley
They span 3km of coast line and wander 1 km off into the Mersey.
My first attempt to meet with these guys was in earlier this year when Sunny came up for a girlie weekend...... the wind was blowing a severe gale and the tide was, how should I say, so high our hair do's got rather more than we had bargained for, the water was lashing wildly over the promenade. As large as these statues are you would be hard pressed to see a hair on their head (ok they don't have hair!)
My second attempt, however, was alot more successful, the tide was on its way out on a strange sunny/rainy/sunny evening.
The statues are tremendous... so Sunny these are for you
What do you call a Gormley statue with a seagull on his head ??
