Metal sculptures on show at park to celebrate Insect Week
Metal sculptures of insects are on display at a Staffordshire park thanks to the creative talents of students.
To celebrate Insect Week, students from South Staffordshire College who are studying motor vehicle studies have been working with Cronimet, a Cannock-based company that recycles scrap stainless steel, to make insects and bugs out of scrap metal.
The students have learned various metal working skills, which have enabled them to produce the sculptures for display in the garden of the signal box in Hednesford Park.
Councillor Andrea Muckley, portfolio leader for environment and climate change on Cannock Chase District Council, said: “The artwork produced by the students is magnificent.
"This project has highlighted the issue of climate change to the students in a creative way.
