“A sculpture of Jesus on the cross made entirely from wire coat hangers has been put on display at Southwark Cathedral. Tuner Prize nominee David Mach’s piece, entitled Die Harder, depicts the figure of Christ screaming in agony. The dramatic sculpture was made from 3,000 coat hangers with the hooks straightened so they appear to be sticking out of the body. Mr Mach said: ‘The figure of Christ is in pain and anguish pierced by thousands of spears, that single body acting as a conduit for all the cares and the woes.” w/ photos
