Met this guy in Perth yesterday….The Knife Angel , created by Alfie Bradley in collaboration with the British Ironwork Centre, stands 27 feet high and is made from over 100,000 seized and surrendered knives. The statue was built to inspire change.

In my opinion it’s a very powerful and beautiful piece of artwork. Not only is the statue beautifully designed and constructed, it carries a very powerful message. And if it makes just one person think twice about using knives then it is worth every penny it cost to build.

Even as I stood there taking the photo, I heard one young mum explaining to her children the significance of the statue and how knives can cause so much damage and devastation.
