Artist plans mass sulk to capture British mood

An artist hopes to capture the mood of recession-hit, rain-soaked Britain – by staging a mass sulk.

Barrie J Davies, 32, is recruiting hundreds of people to stand outside Cardiff City Hall looking miserable. The 'sulkathon' will take place in Cardiff on Friday between 1pm and 2pm.



Davies says he hopes that ‘the mass sulk will explore life's depressions and anxieties and hopefully it will exorcise some of those demons.’

'I hope an hour of morose silence will capture the mood of the moment,' he added.
