Our Inspiration
Following the overwhelming response to the Knife Angel and its National Youth Anti-Violence Educational Programme and Tour, Greater Manchester Police wanted to collaborate with us to create their own specific monument.
Marking the first occasion a British Constabulary has entrusted us with firearms, as well as blades, the GMP handed to us thousands of seized and collected weapons to create a dedicated monument.
Fuelled and inspired by the trust that the GMP had in us, we wanted to create a monument that was both visually magnificent and striking, whilst also resonating with the Manchester community.
