I was involved in the Art across the city project in Swansea recently as they wanted people who were once employees of Amazon to have their heads scanned and converted into 2m high laser cut cardboard stacks. Displayed in the eves of the cities bus station, they are intended to represent the changing industry in the area which was once a bustling port with a hub of industry orientated around mining, fishing and steel production. Now the biggest employer in the area is centered around packing goods into boxes for shipping. A sad state of affairs as although people have work it is not in the skilled industry sector anymore.
