luvnaught:myotishia:sixpenceee:Sculptor Spends 2 Years To Build Knife Angel Out Of 100,000 WeaponsThere’s a giant 26-foot-tall Knife Angel sculpture in the UK, built entirely out of 100,000 donated knives. But besides the impressive statistics, it’s also a monument built out of morbid necessity to remember the victims fallen to the increasing knife violence in the United Kingdom and to finally acknowledge that there is a real problem.(Via BoredPanda)Interesting story of the day: My dad helped design the anonymous knife deposit bins in London. You can put a knife of any size in, but you can’t get anything out, no matter what you do unless you have the key.Wow. Beautiful sculpture. And truly a horrific message of violence.It just brings home, though, that no matter what we ban, humans will find a way of harming each other when pushed to the breaking point. -- source link
