The Rising Tide
'The Rising Tide' was designed by internationally-renowned underwater sculptor Jason deCaires Taylor, and was in place between 02.09.15 and 3.09.15. The four 3-metre tall working horses were concealed and revealed by the tide each day.
They were commissioned as part of Totally Thames, a new, month-long celebration of the river and its place in London’s history. Fully amphibious, they were positioned to be submerged at high tide, then gradually revealed as the tide goes out – to be slowly swallowed once more as it comes back in.
