Iron man sculpture to welcome Debut Restaurant customers

Posted on September 22nd, 2011

Customers of the college’s fine dining Debut Restaurant will be greeted by an imposing new sculpture from this autumn, after a 14-foot long figure of an iron man was placed near to the entrance over the summer break.     

The impressive sculpture is the work of former National Diploma in Fine Art student Zebadiah Sherwood.
 
The iron man sculpture can be found next to the newly refurbished Debut Restaurant reception, and has been placed in a way that suitably displays the sculpture and brings life to the alcove area.
