Its a little know fact but apparently there is a subertanean tunnel running directly between New York City and London. Until very recently the tunnel has remained dormant and incomplete, this was until artist Paul St George unearthed the plans for the tunnel and set about uncovering it.

Although in accessible to the public, an intricate set of mirrors and prisms that we built into the tunnel have been reactivated for a short time.

So head down to the southbank and have a look at New Yorkers looking back at you. Or vice versa if you are in New York.

The full story is on the website:

We'd like you to rate a project for success in three different areas. Tick looks good if it is aesthetically pleasing, and tick works well if it is technically innovative. Most importantly tick performs effectively if you think it meets all of its professional objectives.


Obviously we don't really expect to see any work submitted that is no good, but you never know.
