Use our map with suggested route to take in public art installations by global and emerging artists, including Damien Hirst, Allen Jones and Morag Myerscough, enjoy food and drink from independent traders beside the river or relax by one of our 5 meditation points from OPO by BeBox.

Run or walk the landscaped trail to discover it for yourself.

The Making of The Tide

COLLABORATORS OF THE TIDE

'Mermaid' and 'Hydra and Kali'

Damien Hirst

Iconic British artist Damien Hirst’s sculptures – Hydra and Kali and Mermaid from ‘Treasures from the Wreck of the Unbelievable’ – pay homage to the water, with several more to follow.

'Head in the Wind'

Allen Jones

One of the country’s most distinguished pop artists has installed a strikingly red eight-metre high sculpture. Head in the Wind is designed to be viewed not just from the ground but from above too.

'Siblings'

Morag Myerscough

Under The High Tide, you can seek out a boldly coloured installation by Morag Myerscough. Siblings illuminates The Tide’s arches with Myerscough's signature splashes of colour. Born and Bred in London, she continues to be fascinated by how words, colour, pattern and structures can change urban environments. Characterised by an engaging boldness, she creates local responses to each distinct audience that will see and experience the environment she embellishes.

'Seafood Disco'

Studio Morison

Architectural duo, Heather Peak and Ivan Morison, have created The Seafood Disco – London’s longest outdoor picnic table stretching 27 metres along the riverfront.
