Graduate uses public artwork to try to get a job

A graduate seeking a career in public relations turned herself into a public artwork to try to get a job.

Mairead Rodden, 26, took part in artist Antony Gormley’s One & Other project, which gives 2,400 members of the public one hour each on an empty plinth in Trafalgar Square.

She wore a sandwich board to advertise for a PR job and played Dolly Parton’s 9 To 5 song when she posed on the plinth.
