There is building works going on around Wolverhampton.
Massive changes to the local shopping centres with lots of closed down shops and noise.
There are attempts at brightening up the space with 'art'.
One shop space has been turned into a 'gallery' 'curated' by students/recent graduates from the local uni which isn't much more than decals and picture boards stuck to the walls.
There has been work done on murals in the wider open space with one taking one woman days to produce.
Days of climbing up and down a ladder surrounded by barriers, carefully painting a large mural with a huge blank space in rhe middle.
On and off, she has spent weeks working on this opus, painstakingly creating the city's motto against a backdrop of a hellish industrial backdrop.
Today I saw the finished, um, thing.
It turns out she's been working on panels elsewhere to stick on the blank bird/angel space in the middle of the mural.
Ladies and gentlemen!
Allow me to present Wolverhampton's one and only
FLAMING PISSED OFF TURKEY FROM HELL
Seriously?
WTAF?
To my eye, it honestly looks like a not particularly talented teenager had a go a scaling up a picture she saw in an art book.
Please tell me this wasn't paid for???

AIBU?
Is this poor work for someone who is studying/has studied fine art? **title edited by MNHQ at OP's request**
