I noticed this ‘thing’ on the crossing of the South Mall by Parliament Bridge a few weeks ago. I found it amazing. I suspect that the great majority of people pass by and don’t even notice it but on closer inspection it is a truely wonderful creation. What’s more it must have been sewn on to the traffic light post since there’s no other way that it could have been attached.
Now I know a professional photographer should always have his camera with him but sometimes one just wants to do a bit of shopping so it took me a week or so to get back into town with my camera which is a shame because orginally it had an eye.
I think this is great. Hat’s off to the Secret Knitter who ‘posted’ this one and may there be a few more entertaining pieces of street art appearing around Cork City.
I’m left with the vision of someone stitching on the South Mall in the middle of the night with a few taxi drivers driving past wondering what on earth is going on!
