Raising the Titanic!

I have been working with Plunge Productions on a replica of one of the Titanic’s gigantic funnels (complete with seaweed and Limpets!) for the Titanic Artefact Exhibition at the O2. The 6.5m tall funnel was built-in eight sections in a 4m by 20m workshop in Brighton, then assembled at Canary Wharf. The funnel was then towed down the Thames as if it had been dragged from the sea after 100 years.

Featuring in several national newspapers including the Evening Standard and The Daily Mail, the photos look amazing!
