The Big Man reaches out to the Capital
PUPPETEER Ross Mackay gave youngster Max Wilson, 11, a lift so he could meet the Big Man Walking, as the eight-metre high giant was unveiled in the Capital.
The jaw-dropping figure has been created by the Puppet Lab and Puppet Animation Scotland, with the aim of bringing change to communities across Scotland.
The Big Man, funded by the Scottish Arts Council Inspire fund, will visit six communities and create a festival of arts around his arrival.
After leaving the Capital he will head off to the Isle of Bute, Kirkcaldy, Buckie, Invergordon and Inverclyde.
