Remember the spectacular herds of life-size elephant sculptures that took up residence in London’s Royal Parks last year? Well, now it’s the turn of life-sized eggs. Yep, really.
Currently installed across the Cadogan Estate in Chelsea are seven unique egg-shaped masterpieces, each representing a different decade of the Queen’s historic 70-year reign, created by leading contemporary artists including Emily Powell, Sasha Compton and Simon Emery.
Conceived by the Elephant Family — the charity on a mission to protect Asia’s wildlife and the force behind the elephant exhibition — in collaboration with Clarence Court eggs, this free public art exhibition aims to raise awareness around the impact of egg poaching.
The seven egg sculptures will be auctioned off next year, with proceeds going towards conservation work in South Asia. If you’re keen to purchase an egg, log your interest asap via the Elephant Family website.
