Street photography- ‘homeless Jesus’

A day in town! Tried the express bus from Strathaven direct to Glasgow! 35mins!!
In Nelson Mandela Square we came across this powerful sculpture.
A life-size sculpture which depicts Jesus as a homeless man sleeping on a bench has been installed in Glasgow city centre, the first place in the United Kingdom to receive the statue. Castings of the sculpture have been placed in cities around the world since 2013. Churches and homeless charities hope the artwork will help raise awareness of the plight of homeless people.

Cast in bronze, the shrouded figure is identifiable as Jesus only from the crucifixion wounds on his feet. Canadian Catholic artist Timothy Schmalz created it.
