A second snoopy statue will need to be removed after being discovered broken just two days into the project. Park-goers discovered the broken sculpture on the morning of Sunday, April 10, in Victoria Park in Cardiff. However residents cannot figure out how the incident happened as the park is locked at night.
The giant snoopy is part of A Dog's Trail project featuring 40 large Snoopys, and 75 smaller ones scattered across south Wales. The project went live on Friday, April 8, however this is the second large sculpture to be damaged, with the first being removed on the morning of Saturday, April 9 from Caerphilly Castle due to vandalism.
The Victoria Park snoopy was designed by Layla Holzer. She designed a summery floral scene featuring big bold flowers with dog characters running, playing, and hiding between them, as well as scattered motifs of dog bones, balls, twigs and stars. She used a very soft pale lilac base with imagery in deep blue, neon pink, yellow and a lighter pink to create a design that aimed to capture the playful, cheeky characters of dogs.
