Giant artwork designed by Royal Academy students goes on display at a Hines development in Mayfair
London鈥檚 'largest urban gallery' was unveiled this morning on the side of a building site in Mayfair.
The central image, an artwork designed by Royal Academy student Alex Knell on a quarter-acre canvas, was unfurled with the help of some abseiling workers.
Knell鈥檚 work was selected as the winner of an online poll of RA students鈥� work. Twelve shortlisted submissions are displayed alongside on another part of the 19m x 43m canvas draped over the development at One Grafton Street.
The unique display of public art is the brainchild of property developer Hines, which is building the commercial development beneath the canvas.
