Robin Matthews he lives in Rothley near Leicester. He wrote his dissertation on Gormley and grew up near Crosby beach. He is going to take a series of photographs while on the plinth which he hopes to show people. He considered dressing as a pigeon but went with photography because of the time of day. He is doing the project for himself. He hopes that people will talk to him and that it doesn't rain. He studied site specific and public art. He is part of an art group called Vanilla Galleries and works in a pub while looking for an art-based job. Family, health and friends are important to him. He feels he is being quite boring on the plinth.
