Location : Situated by London Bridge Station and mounted high above the eclectic pop up Vinegar Yard.
Stories from the Wasteland, an abandoned train carriage crawling with giant mechanical ants, is a large installation above Vinegar Yard. Arrivals on platform 15 of London Bridge Station get a fine view of this dystopian scene. The whole site was designed by Benj Scrimgeour, founder of Flat Iron Square and Vinegar Yard, and art by Joe Rush can be seen throughout the venue.
Commissioned by Benj Scrimgeour.
