This article is about life-size sculptures placed there to raise awareness about suicide. The sculptures were installed overnight as part of Project 84 an idea made possible by American street artist Mark Jenkins and the Campain against living in miserable or CALM, a charity focused on preventing suicide, which it says is the single biggest killer of men under 45 in the UK. The sculptures represent the 84 men who commit suicide, on average, each week in the UK. CALM says three in four suicide victims are men.
