Dream statue in Sutton, St Helens

After a particularly horrendous day with the kids in liverpool we decided to stop on the way home to try and salvage something from the day.

The 20 metre-high artwork takes the form of a young girl?s head with her eyes closed in a seemingly dream-like state. The piece has a white, almost luminescent finish in marked contrast to the black of the coal that still lies below. Its contours and reflectivity change according to the time of day and the weather. Apparently.
