Disabled artist Jason Wilsher-Mills worked with a range of disability groups and organisations in Hull to input into his design for an interactive sculpture. The surface of the sculpture is intricately decorated with brightly coloured cellular structures, which relate to the cause of Jason's disability. Also included are symbols of Hull representing the groups worked with.
