Docks Open Art Series: The Fish and The Mermaid
Artist Joy Yamusangie will work with local communities to create a new public artwork for the Royal Docks.
Being installed this autumn, the final piece will be a symbol of transition and migration. The scales will be created with local people.
The Fish and the Mermaid is part of the Docks Open Art Series curated by Hive Curates.
