Optical Flow, Tideway Greenwich Pumping Station

Optical Flow - commissioned by Tideway for the listed Greenwich Pumping Station in London. This permanent commission responds to site-specific narratives and references the revolutionary impact of the railway and its social and economic influence.
Lubna’s artwork was inspired by the site’s history of railway signalling. The adjacent track, one of the world’s oldest and longest railway viaducts is part of the London & Greenwich Railway. This was London’s first metropolitan railway, connecting London Bridge to Greenwich in 1838.
