I wandered down Hill Street a few weeks back and, looking one of the hoardings, said “huh, that looks like it’s by Sola“. And so it is. From Laura McNamara‘s website:
As part of Regenerated in conjunction with Network Rail; Remi/Rough, Juice126, Zoot, Julian Kimmings and Sola were asked to create large scale artworks to be displayed on Hill Street, Birmingham.
To coincide with the building of the new New Street station, the artists were asked to create works based on the themes of Regeneration, Reflection and Movement.
Please excuse the poor iPhone photography. The hoardings will be up for 18 months in total though, so chances are you’ll wander past them at some point.
