Sculpture Name: Jet the Hareplane

Sponsor Name: Quality Street Ltd

Created by: Dinky Doors Dinky Doors are anonymous street artists from Cambridge. They are on an unexpected mission to *SAVE THE WORLD* from relentlessly terrible news and wanton drudgery. It�s ambitious, certainly, but the doors they have built and installed around Cambridge are dinky dollops of quirkiness that people are finding joyful and delightful.

Jet the Hareplane: Jet set up business as an independent hareline pilot this year, when he realised that life wasn�t moving fast enough for his liking. To realise his dream, he studied haeronautical engineering and developed a strap-on 3p coin-operated jet propulsion harecraft wing. Sure, it was a harebrained idea, but he couldn�t hare less, and soon enough he was hareborne and hurtling towards the hareizon. He�s pretty hoppy, and hopping his business will really take off soon � certainly now that he has a passenger cabin strapped to his belly.

As well as producing over 400 murals, privately, in the community and in schools, he has also been involved in many of the public art trails across the country.

He has also worked with the community helping them produce over 100 smaller sculptures for the trails. He recently illustrated his 1st children�s story book based around one of the Wild in Art sculptures he designed & painted. Hoptimus Prime:This design, for the Robotic style hare, came from a brief with the sponsors who were after a cutting-edge style character to represent them. In their workplace they have a stunning Bionic man mural and wanted the hare to take a similar theme, so Mik designed him to have ceramic panels, with pistons and gears, electronic wires and glimmering led tubes behind a skin of mesh, glowing visor, with computerized readouts and a pixelated atomic powered heart in his chest. If you thought Hares were fast, then this one is like lightning!

Salvador Dali was Paul�s hero, he even hitchhiked to Cadaqu�s in Spain to see Dali and managed to have a brief conversation with him outside his house - a story artist Nyia was told many times whilst painting alongside Paul in his Leigh on Sea workshop.
