I love foxes, which is probably why I don’t get too het up at the fact we have a whole family living next door to us (although they can get very noisy at night).
So I was delighted when they started putting up this giant sculpture near Waterloo Bridge this week. I walk past him every morning so it’s been fascinating see him take shape…
Isn’t he fab? His name is Urban Fox. I particularly love his eyes.
*Urban Fox is part of the Southbank Festival of Britain.
The full time lapse videos can be found here http://vimeo.com/andyhague/videos
Found some time lapse video of the building of the fox at this blog http://weirdben.blogspot.com

Thank you so much for commenting Alex – she (sorry!) is absolutely genius.
How cool! Love it that London keeps on surprising x
We have had a lot of fun, the Pirate Technics team have done a great job! 7m tall, weighing 3tonnes, and… definitely a she! Hope you enjoy, there’s a lot to see at the Festival, do come down.
