Garth Evans

Garth Evans (born 1934) is a British sculptor and former college lecturer at St Martin's School of Art, London.

These included a 40-foot-long unnamed sculpture in coal-black steel, which was installed on The Hayes, Cardiff, in early May 1972.

[5] It was inspired by Evans' family stories about the South Wales coalmining (and steel) industry.

[6] In September 2019 it was returned to Cardiff by Chapter Arts Centre, restored and repainted after a £16,000 crowdfunding campaign, then reinstalled close to its original location in The Hayes.

[6] A short documentary film was due to be created, based on people's memories of the sculpture.
