I first came across the above example of BeeMancunian\u2019s work while reading through the many #manchesterbee tweets<\/a> in the wake of the Manchester bombing.<\/p>\n A few people had shared images of the sculpture and, thanks to Caroline Polwarth<\/a>, I was able to track down in the Northern Quarter, outside the Church Street\u00a0 multi-storey car park. It was a surprise though to find the following altered bees on the bollards next to the substation on the corner of Tib St \/ Thomas St. The titles listed below each photograph can be found posted above each bee.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” background_size=”initial”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″][et_pb_image
