A Shiny Metal Elephant

A Shiny Metal Elephant

Imagine how long it must have taken to build this elephant. Imagine all the effort that it took to cut and then weld the bits and pieces together… imagine how long it took to shine this enormous metal proboscidea

You’ll find this and many other artworks outside the African Trading Post at the V&A Waterfront.

No, I never actually knew that elephants were part of the Proboscidea family. ;)
