A Pound of Flesh for 50p, also known as Melting House, was a temporary outdoor sculpture by artist Alex Chinneck, located in London, United Kingdom. Part of the city's Merge Festival, the two-story house sculpture was constructed from 8,000 paraffin wax bricks and it was designed to melt with assistance from a heating apparatus. It was displayed from September 26 to November 18, 2014, at 40 Southwark Street, SE1 9HP. The sculpture was then destroyed.
