Walking the City 2016

by Julian Opie

Iconic British artist Julian Opie was commissioned to create a bespoke artwork covering the south and east façade of the luxury CitizenM building in 2016.

The sculpture features 23 figures cut by stoneCIRCLE using their waterjet cutting facilities in 5mm thick Phosphor Bronze sheet. Capisco then welded the sections together and patinated each figure to a deep custom patina similar to our OST Bronze Patina. The pieces were then glued into place on site.

The walls are 18m & 8m long by roughly 2.4m high.
