More from Cardiff! We drove past a roundabout with these sculptures in the middle and I was hanging out from the car window trying to take a photo. There was an international competition to design sculpture for this important road junction at an entrance to a large residental area and the winner was Pierre Vivant. He designed these five huge geometric shapes constructed with aluminium frames and covered by traffic signs. When we drove past again at night the sculptures looked completely different, the car headlights make the fraffic signs light up and it looked quite beautiful. It's popularly known as 'the magic roundabout'. 
Pierre Vivant also designed this sculpture in London called the Traffic Light Tree.
