Nimby (Temporary, 2007)

Nimby the ElephantNimby, the Ashford Elephant was created by up and coming Ashford based artist Oliver Winconek.  Built off his own back and created in an old empty warehouse, the beautiful lifesize creation was erected on SEEDA owned wasteland in October 2007 (now an Ashford Borough Council car park).  Nimby the Elephant was born out of a desire to create something new and exciting for Ashford.  It was designed to reflect some peoples views towards large scale public art.  Some see it as boisterous and destructive and makes waves to try and stop it happening whilst the majority realise it is just a bit of fun and should be encouraged.

Due to public demand, Nimby greeted her friends and fans in Bank Street whilst out shopping in the Ashford's January sales and even stayed over for a few weeks in the old cattle market site on Elwick Road.  Oliver has since exhibited work around Europe alongside Banksy, Dface, Blek le Rat and Nick Walker.
