The Faces of Canary Wharf

Canary Wharf Group | 2016

Canary Wharf is a commercial estate and locality in between Poplar, Millwall and Limehouse on the Isle of Dogs in Greater London, in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. It is one of the main financial centres of the United Kingdom, along with the City of London, and contains many of Europe’s tallest buildings, including the 2nd-tallest in the UK.

Artist Helen Marshall of the People’s Picture was commissioned by Canary Wharf Group and worked alongside Real Studios to create ‘The Faces of Canary Wharf’.

Comprised of up to 15,000 individual photographs, and over 10 metres long, it reveals a striking panorama of Jubilee Park. This work of art shows the historic development of Canary Wharf, with a special focus on people, arts and events.

Many thanks to all the participants that contributed to our mosaic.
