Street art takes on a a new dimension in Llanelli town centre

Potholes will take on a whole new dimension in Llanelli town centre next month.
One measuring 20-feet by 10-feet will appear in Stepney Street.
But council bosses have said there will be no need to panic – it’s an optical illusion.
Armed with paint brushes 3D street artists will descend on Stepney Street creating the hole in the ground during the Spring Bank Holiday weekend on Saturday, May 24.
Shoppers and visitors will be able to “look” into the hole with no danger of falling in.
The optical illusion will be created by an S4C team promoting one of the new exciting programmes for children called Madron.
Llanelli’s tourism and marketing manager Huw Parsons said: “It’s tremendous Llanelli’s ultra modern town centre is attracting this kind of attention.
“Art of this nature commands a lot of attention and can cause quite a stir with even Jaws breaking out of the drainage system.”
County executive board member for regeneration Cllr Meryl Gravell promised this was not another hole-digging exercise. “No damage is done. The optical illusion is created on a piece of vinyl and the hole is going to be 20ft by 10ft big enough to swallow a car,” she said.
