Description
This unique sculpture is the Merchant Seafarers War Memorial in Cardiff Bay. This is a striking piece of street art situated right outside the Welsh Assembly Building, Y Senedd. Cardiff Bay played a major part in the development and success of Cardiff as an exporter of coal to power the industrial age. Tiger Bay is historically one of the first multicultural ports in Great Britain and the community comes from up to 45 different nationalities. The docks were regenerated in 1999 by the creation of the Cardiff Bay Barrage

Nice work with B&W. The right has just enough light to see the texture of the piece of work so that the eye is drawn across the whole culture.
