| What you are looking at is 40,000 spoons. |
Sculptor Alfie Bradley, who has hand-welded every spoon to the statue, said he had been amazed at how the appeal for cutlery had taken off on social media.
"Initially we thought we only needed 5,000 spoons, but it's incredibly hard to calculate and it turned out we actually needed 40,000," he said.
"It's been incredibly repetitive, but it's been a challenge. The spoons have been different sizes, different metals."
