    Yeah I saw these enormous marionettes in the streets of Perth a couple of years ago, Difficult to describe the impact. it's not just the awesome size, there is something that stirs the soul when so many people work seamlessly to bring giant characters to life in this way. You feel yourself like a character in Gulliver's Travels.

    This was posted on another thread, but it's far too good not to be shared here.

    The artist was Natalia Rak — her Wiki page here — in Białystok, Poland in 2013. There's a whole totally wonderful article about the image here.
