A new sculpture serving as a meditation on the ongoing conflict in Ukraine is to be unveiled on The Liverpool Plinth. Boy with knife carnation by Wirral based artist Brigitte Jurack is the sixth sculpture to be installed onto the Plinth at Liverpool's Parish Church, Saint Nicholas'
Boy with knife carnation is a piece originally conceived as a meditation on fear and uncertainty and the lingering potential of violence. The knife in the original sculpture is replaced with a carnation, which will be replaced to change colour throughout the year. In Ukrainian culture, different coloured carnations are used to symbolise different feelings and emotions. Red carnations, for example, are given on 8 May to veterans, white (shown here)are given as a sign of pure love and pink to mothers to celebrate undying love.

A striking sculpture that challenges the perceptions of disability in society has been unveiled at Liverpool Parish Church, also known as St Nick’s. The installation, Gold Lamé, is by disabled sculptor and artist Tony Heaton and will occupy The Liverpool Plinth, an empty platform overlooking Chapel Street and the waterfront, for the next 12 months.
Gold Lamé is based on the famous Invacar – a small, blue, one-seater vehicle given to disabled people during the 1960s and 1970s. Sprayed gold and suspended vertically above the plinth, the sculpture reclaims the word lame and confronts negative stereotyping of disabled people the vehicle represented.
