A Banging good piece of work, but don’t let kids near it

I was saddened to hear the fate of Thomas Heatherwick’s iconic sculpture in Manchester, and feel sure the sculpture can be usefully recycled somehow.

I think the spikes should be made into Baby B of the Bangs and sold as limited editions, to help cover Heatherwick’s out of court settlement to Manchester City Council.

I’d love to own a bit of the Bang – but I’d keep small children very far away from it.
