Walking round to grab some food at Rootys earlier, I was surprised to see this floating about:
I’ve tried to find some infomation about it but, other than rumours of a flyer (no pun intended) knocking about, the sole font of knowledge is Pete Ashton’s post from the other week on the Custard Factory blog. From that I learn that it’s an installation by artist Vika Verb:
a challenging reminder of where we are and how we got here – is in the form of poetry inspired graffitti which will float above the Custard Factory in Birmingham. It is the first of a series of similar installations at the Custard Factory.
and it’ll be properly unveiled at 5pm today.
I assume that’s what it is anyway – what are the odds of their being two big inflatables floating round the Custard Factory today?
