With show-stopping outdoor sculptures from the likes of Larry Achiampong, Madge Gill, Yinka Ilori and Tracey Emin, and film exhibitions in an 18th century mill house on the River Lea, The Line, East London’s public art trail that follows the waterways and the line of the Greenwich Meridian is making a meaningful and measurable impact on people’s lives.
Whether it's the 70+ young people that have been trained as local guides, increasing GP referrals for their weekly wellbeing walks, countless workshops, or the significant benefits experienced by people living with dementia, The Line is not only commissioning some of the most exciting artists to create ambitious public art projects in East London, they are working in partnership with local communities, schools and the NHS to use art for good.
The evidence of their impact is clear. The art is nothing short of brilliant. And with a slew of new installations to be unveiled across 2024 alongside a growing programme of workshops, talks and more, they are boldly reinventing what public art can do.
WHAT WE DID FOR The Line
Immediately struck by the impressive lineup of artists set alongside East London’s stunning waterways, we knew Zetteler had to be involved when we heard about their expansive engagement programme that spans education, wellbeing and youth employment. We love seeing art with a powerful social mission, and are incredibly proud to celebrate this undeniable success happening on our doorstep.
