Arron Bird
(aka Temper) grew up in Wolverhampton.He became one of the world's foremost graffiti artists, his artwork adorning public spaces, art galleries, Saatchi & Saatchi's headquarters, and about 100 million Sprite cans.
He was commissioned to create a public work of art for The Cube, a "jewellery box" of a bulding in central Birmingham
The resulting seven bronze figures feature "ordinary" people from Birmingham with heart-felt stories.
They include a mother with her child who was born with a hole in the heart, a bravery award-winning firefighter and a woman who survived the Holocaust.
