This post showcases two artists who work with sculpture: Isaac Cordal and Marcus Juncal. Both have visited London in the past and have left small sculptures around. I occassionally discover a new one that I have never seen before; they have been there for a little while now, and a lot of the work is looking weathered now.
Isaac Cordal is an artist from Brussels who creates and installs several ceramic/cement figures around city streets in a series of portrayals called "Cement Eclipes". The figures are placed in absurb situations to portray city life and interactions with the city around them. These can be on the tops of signs and buildings. Often, many people can walk past them without noticing them.

Marcus Juncal's work can be seen in a few places around Brick Lane, but it's fading quite a bit now as the work has been there for a long while now. They feature plastic dolls with McDonalds restaurant bags over their heads and bodies. The artwork seems to relay a message to the viewer.
