| Description |
The 20 metre high London Mastaba is made of 7,506 painted barrels secured to scaffolding and anchored in the Serpentine. It is the first large-scale sculpture by Christo and Jeanne-Claude to be realised in the UK. Interlocking high-density polyethylene has been used to create a floating platform that is held in place by 32 anchors, each weighing 6 tonnes. The barrels are supported by a steel frame and scaffolding system. The whole sculpture weighs 600 tonnes and covers one per cent of the lake's surface. |
