College artist Jennifer Coley’s colourful creation, part of Liverpool’s Go Penguins public art event, is attracting attention from shoppers in the city’s Metquarter.
The penguin, entitled “WMC – The Place To Be”, is number 79 on the trail map and located on the first floor of the shopping centre. Complete with cap and gown, it has been created with portholes on the front and back, illustrating the College campuses and the link between Liverpool and Wirral.
Jennifer said:
“Graphic designer Di Bennett and I came up with the idea to show that, although there’s the Mersey between us,we’re not all that far from each other.”
The underlying message of the Go Penguins event is to highlight the impact of climate change and how this is threatening the existence of these creatures.
