I have to say I thought Liverpool had seen it all this year with a 50ft spider but apparently not. Next on its way to the city is a 20ft neon rabbit!!!
I'm not complaining too much as it is in my favourite colour-turquoise and is nowhere near where I live!
From Friday the bunny will hang at the tower of one of Liverpool's most historically significant and recognisable places of worship - St James Church in Toxteth. As part of the Biennial celebrations the installation will stay until February and will be viewable between 4-10pm everyday.
Rabbit is the fourth and final animal, by artist Ron Haselden, in a series of striking light installations as part of Liverpool Biennial's Winter Lights programme.
The piece of art was initially designed by nine-year-old Calvin Tang, which Ron Haselden selected from a competition at St Vincent de Paul School in Toxteth.
I am very much enjoying the Biennial spotting random pieces of artwork in the street-like the Superlambananas it is a treasure hunt.
I do like the spider at Exchange flags, it looks particulary pretty in the evening.
