London street spectacular - The Sultan's Elephant
Giant puppets make for a spectacular street art event. Not a guerilla type thing - no doubt this production required very close cooperation with city authorities. But the effect looks terrific... First found out about this on Pat Cadigan's Flickr blog (she's a terrific scifi writer).
Those of you who know me will know of my very great weakness for street processions with elephants..
Later I saw the BBC coverage. No doubt this was a useful bit of street theatre to take Labour's mind off their dismal election performance...Technorati Tags: public art, street art, United Kingdom
