Off With Their Heads!

How do you eat your jelly babies?
These folks are on a plinth at Marble Arch & are part of a sculpture trail in Westminster organised by the Halcyon Gallery.
Created by Mauro Perucchetti they are:
"Inspired by the dilemma between cloning and religion, and cloning and medical ethics. I decided to use the jelly baby as an impersonation of cloned mankind. I was trying to capture the ambiguity that could be present in a cloned being. On first glance, they seem very sweet, but from certain angles, they can look slightly sinister, especially on a large scale."
If you find jelly babies sinister, the fact that the smallest is over 2 metres tall may be especially upsetting!
