Commissioned by St George's Plc with London Borough of Southwark as part of the development of One Blackfriars, the work titled 65,000 Photographs will be installed at the new public plaza in October 2019 and is the artist's first permanent public artwork in the UK.
Referring to Khan's personal archive of some 65,000 photographs, the London-based artist will create a work that serves as a record of our zeal to document our lives and offers pause for reflection on the nature of passing time. At eight metres tall, and employing sand casting methods, the structure will escalate skywards, its constituent blocks growing in size in relation to dimensions of standard photographic prints.
