The bust is designed in such a way as to fool the brain, and as a result as you walk past it, it suddenly changes from disappearing into the wall to standing out from it and before flipping back again.

The artwork was added to the building during a re-development by CRGP Ltd which help save it from the threat of demolition. Despite being by a major international artist (Subirachs worked on Gaudi’s Sagrada Familia in Barcelona), few people give it a second glance as they hurry past it, if they even notice it at all.

@thisismyglasgow I admit I'd never noticed that!
A couple of interesting fossils in the street names round there too: Ropework Lane and Metropole Lane...
