A massive, fire-breathing dragon roamed the streets of Calais, France over the last few weeks. But you needn’t fear, this dragon was entirely manmade, a massive work of craftsmanship and engineering, controlled by 17 artists and operators. Part of La Machine, a group that annually creates larger than life creatures, this was this biggest work yet, made of steel and carved wood. An absolute marvel of creativity and craft, Via MyModernMet:
“Freed from the subterranean worlds, the Dragon of Calais is heading for the city,” say the makers. “This new creation built by La Machine Company will roam the city, manipulated by 17 people who give him life.”
