2796. St Werburghs tunnel (154)

During the first half of February, a whole bunch of new pieces appeared in the St Werburghs tunnel, in fact the turnover there has been quite remarkable this winter, and this extraordinary piece by Deddringa was among them. He is an artist I am unfamiliar with and this is the first piece by him that I have posted.

The piece is rather unusual, and has the appearance of a dystopian future Planet of the Apes kind of thing, or at least that is how I see it. The simian features on the face are skilfully blended with the background, especially under the mouth where the silhouetted buildings come through.

I probably need to do a bit of swotting up to find out more about Deddringa and hope to see more of his work in the future.
