This is an amazing 'exhibit' - I kept imagining walking up upon them... even one figure with barnacles and rust would be stunning! What more the thought that they are regularly submerged by the tides... I would love to see them all. I found from the link you included that there are 100 of them. Unbelievable. Negative self-talk or not, I love that poem, and how apt with the photographs and layout of this post. Thank you for sharing this. I will definitely look for this if I am ever in Liverpool. Many battle with depression... as you have described, it is knowing the tides and trying to keep one's head above water, time and time again. I wish you well.

Thank you @ackhoo. I'm glad you enjoyed the poem and the accompanying article, if you ever make it to Liverpool hit me up and I'll show you some of the best art places the city has to offer. + a guided tour of the Gormley exhibit. It is quite a sight :-)
The accompanying article too, definitely... I realised I didn't actually mention it! :D Sorry! First of all, I guess I was all excited about the exhibit and secondly, a little overcome by the sadness and darkness of the accompanying mood. It would be grand, IF I ever made it to Liverpool, to have a guided tour of the Gormley exhibit and shown the art places there... Thank you in advance, and for the thought... and offer! :) Have a good evening!!
