A UK housewife is set to be the very first person to stand on Anthony Gormley's new 'living sculpture,' entitled 'One & Other.' Gormley is choosing 2,400 people at random from 14,500 applications (so far ... you can still apply) to stand for one hour on top of a plinth in Trafalgar Square. Rachel Wardell is the lucky woman to stand first: "I wanted to be able to represent normal, everyday stay-at-home mums who aren't normally a feature of major artworks -- to show my kids now, and when they're older, that you can do, and be part of anything, no matter how ordinary you are or feel," Wardell said.
