When Lamb meets Banana

What happened when lamb meets banana?

The answer is Super Lamb Banana!!

What the heck is that? An animal? Maybe. Some kind of fruit? Not exactly. A mutant? Possibly. Modernized dinosaur? Err…could be.

Moons ago I would have laughed my head off upon hearing this….funny, bizarre, weird, cute,… whateva name.

Call me (or yourself) shallow or call it lame. Go on, pick one. *Melissa whispers: I would suggest you go for the former. You see I am a person who live by the laws and obviously do not want any troubles. The truth will reveal itself soon :p * Just a bantering remark, don’t take it too seriously folks. :)

It is a sculpture that represents the city of Liverpool, just as how Kuching is symbolized by cat. It was created by a Japanese artist Taro Chiezo back in 1998 as a warning against the dangers of genetic engineering, and at the same time reflecting the cheerful, lively and dynamic side of Liverpool city.

So from a scientific point of view, it is a mutant, a cross between a lamb and a banana. But worry not it seems VERY unlikely to happen in real life. *Phew*

From an artistic perspective, it is….an ART piece that serves a special purpose.

Being crowned the European Capital of Culture 2008, Liverpool has located more than 100 of S.L.B. replicas throughout the city in June.
