It was created as part of a project to celebrate the 400th anniversary of the King James Bible in 2011.

The dramatic sculpture was made from 3,000 coat hangers with the hooks straightened so they appear to be sticking out of the body

David Mach said, "The figure of Christ is in pain and anguish pierced by thousands of spears, that single body acting as a conduit for all the cares and the woes."
