Alien

This is a contemporary outdoor sculpture near Victoria Station by David Breuer-Weil. It depicts an Alien that has crash landed in the middle of London. Upside down, with its head in the ground, this alien stands about 5 times the height of a human man.

Breuer-Weil says “I love the idea of the shock of an alien landing in the heart of London and taking everybody by surprise. Every new work of art should be like an alien landing, something sudden and unexpected… I have this idea that extra-terrestrials are completely human, maybe just different in scale, as is the case with my sculpture”.

I arrived back in London after my whirlwind trip to Paris yesterday, and after taking this photo, I made my way home and slept like a baby until the late afternoon when I showered, dressed and headed out on the town with Katelynn and Shelby.
