Bulkhead in Canterbury, United Kingdom

Bulkhead (or Mask) stands tall as a massive fragment of a face or mask crafted by Rick Kirby. The colossal scale artwork was completed and installed at Canterbury's Marlowe Theatre from 2003 until the theatre's demolition in 2009. It made its debut in the city of Canterbury as part of the Blok sculpture festival, drawing crowds with its grandeur. So popular did it become that the city council decided to purchase it, relocating it to the old theatre's forecourt.
