Public artwork near Riverside Park, Mountain Ash
This is a rather unsettling example of public artwork on both sides of the Afon Cynon. In view are many grotesque human masks on top of a wall, and one embedded in the wall partway down. In the absence of any explanatory signs, I asked the sole passer-by if he knew what is being depicted. He shrugged, saying he was a visitor to this area, just like me...
