BILL DRUMMOND will be distributing freshly-baked cakes to Merseyside addresses this weekend, as part of Static Gallery’s Terminal Convention event.

The artist and musician will be making the sponges himself overnight on Friday before beginning their delivery on Saturday morning.

The Liverpool Cake Circle is the fourth of 10 similar projects the former member of early-90s dance duo, The KLF, is creating across the UK – together they will be seen as a single art work.

Drummond, who was based in Liverpool from 1978-83, is well-known for his controversial art projects.

In 1994, he and fellow KLF member Jimmy Cauty set fire to £1m in banknotes on the Scottish island of Jura, and his contribution to the 2002 Liverpool Biennial festival of contemporary visual art included a visitors book asking people to answer the question “Is God a ----?”

In his latest scheme, he will deliver up to 20 cakes to houses chosen at random that are located within a circle with a radius stretching from the Static Gallery, on Roscoe Lane, at its centre to Drummond’s former home on Crawford Avenue, Mossley Hill. The Liverpool School of Art student will spend exactly 32 hours and two minutes constructing the circle, beginning at 4.48pm on Friday.
