Sculptured Railings

Owner Canary Wharf Plc

Bruce McLean's works at Canary Wharf are the sculptural railings alongside Fisherman's Wharf. The 40 metre long charcoal steel rail is heavily worked with shapes, faces, circles and squares, true to his style.

McLean challenges the traditional structure of the railing, subverting the straight line with wit and vigour. McLean lives and works in London, and his prolific work includes numerous public and private commissions including a street redevelopment scheme in Glasgow. He teaches at Goldsmiths College.
