The Knife Angel at Blackburn Cathedral, Lancashire
Taken November 2021.
The Knife Angel, the national monument against violence and aggression, created by Alfie Bradley in collaboration with the British Ironwork Centre. The giant 27ft sculpture, made of over 100,000 seized and surrendered knives, was built to inspire change. Acting as a catalyst for dialogue, education, and reflection, the Knife Angel highlights the negative impact this type of violent crime can have on individuals, families and communities and the critical need for society to change.
