I draw attention to this for two reasons: one is that I know one of the artists, so this is a salute to Pippa. The other reason is that this looks like a really great idea
"Two Christian artists, Pippa Hale and Stuart Tarbuck, have been posting unusual lines from the Bible around Leeds to mark a city-side festival of the visual arts. Their project is called Mene Mene Tekel Upharsin -- words from the story told in Daniel (Daniel 5: 25-30) which appeared on King Belshazzar's palace wall and warned him of his impending death. There are 13 of these Biblical quotes, which include some of Jesus's sayings, posted on signposts, paving stones, park benches, shop widows and billboards.The public are likely to be taken aback by some of the lines chosen, which include: 'Go throw yourself into the sea,' and 'Blessed are the breasts'. The latter is taken from Luke 23: 29: “Blessed are the barren women, and the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never nursed,” (NIV)."
Shame there's no pictures.
