was published in The Gardian by Maev Kennedy. The author wrote that shining bird unveiled at St Dunstan's church in East Sussex for Good Friday project after £1m bequest by sacristan. The artist Maggi Hambling looked up at the shining bird in mirror-polished steel, shimmering high above the altar of St Dunstan's in Mayfield, East Sussex, and at the little piece of silver-painted cardboard in her hand, the original design for her first sculpture for a church. The author underline that Hambling was pleased with the reflection of church and congregation captured in the gleaming feathers, but she was also pleased to see her work so securely sheltered. Then author wrote that Hambling described her religious position as "optimistic doubter", but death had been an important element in her work: she had made tender death-bed drawings of close friends, and of her own father. For many years she had also made a painting or a drawing, often on the subject of a crucifixion, on Good Friday. Mayfield had a tradition of craftsmanship: it was once the centre of the local iron industry. The church, partly dating from the 13th century, was also a suitable place for a resurrection sculpture, having burned to the ground twice in medieval times and risen again. The church was said to have been founded by St Dunstan to mark the spot where in his days as a blacksmith he set about the devil with a red-hot tongs.
