Another Time
Anthony Gormley figure standing in the The Thames at Limehouse.
Location: The Thames, Limehouse
Description: One of sculptor Antony Gormleys 100 Another Time figures stands here in the tidal Thames, walking on water at normal tide and well above at low tide. Dating back to 2013 this striking iron figure is rusting nicely.
Gormley describes the series as Another Time asks where the human being sits within the scheme of things. Each work is necessarily isolated, and is an attempt to bear witness to what it is like to be alive and alone in space and time.
Its owned by actor Sir Ian McKellen to complement his pub The Grapes on the shoreline next to it.
