My uncle died this week. A truly lovely man, that gave me some wonderful memories and great cousins. Funeral was on Thursday.

So I'm looking up the comments on his Rip.ie and see these





So I get on to the siblings and ask wth??

Turns out his sons did it, cos this was the kind of thing that would have made him laugh
My sister heard them workshop it in the car after the crematorium
Love these guys

RIP- one of the greatest artists of the late 20th C IMO - walking through/around his sculptures is a visceral experience
