Original artwork description:
I produced a unique perspective and play on the idea of an apocalyptic vision of the future, where the iron men statues have tilted slowly overtime…..
An army of iron statues look out to sea from Crosby Beach. Visit this surreal, haunting artwork by Antony Gormley, and explore its unique coastline.
About 6 miles (9.5km) north of central Liverpool is Crosby Beach. Here you’ll find the striking public artwork Another Place, by world-famous British artist Antony Gormley.
The work consists of 100 cast-iron, life-size figures spread over 2 miles (3km) of lovely coastline. They reach approximately 0.6 miles (1km) out to sea, being increasingly submerged and revealed as the tide comes in and goes out. Each figure weighs 650kg (0.7 ton) and is made from casts of the artist’s own body. To see them all together is an impressive sight.
