HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED what it takes to be a moving statue? Well, this video may give you an idea.
In this short film from Janto McMullin and Keith Gordon, Grafton Street’s ‘Pigeon Man’ tells the story about how he manages to stand so still that birds often perch on his shoulder and eat food from his hands.
He also discusses some of the difficulties of working in inclement weather at winter, and just what drives him to undertake his kind of work in a city far from home.
