The first London commission of world-renowned underwater sculptor Jason deCaires Taylor, The Rising Tide, on the foreshore at Nine Elms on the South Bank, is concealed and revealed by the tide’s ebb and flow. The installation highlights the role of the Thames as the lifeblood of London, shaping the city’s great history as an ever-evolving centre for culture, industry and commerce.
The Rising Tide is a commission for Totally Thames 2015. The project is supported by the Nine Elms Vauxhall Partnership, Vauxhall One and Lumina Prime 8.
