The Ashes: How big are they to you?

200x190.jpgThe Ashes are one of the biggest prizes in cricket, but just how big is the diminutive urn that England and Australia fight over.

Artist Freddie Yauner - who has been awarded The Ashes Residency Commission - is setting out to discover how big people think the Ashes are.

While in Cardiff he will get crowds to draw the ashes urn at what they think is the correct size, before producing a work of art based on the contest.

"By asking the crowd to draw the ashes urn at the correct size, I will show the perceived size of the prize, recording the difference between what it means to win the ashes and the urn’s actual size." said Yauner.

So how big are The Ashes to you? You can download one of the work sheets from HERE and then submit it to Freddie at the address below. As a tip, if you need more than one sheet of A4 paper you have drawn it too big.
