A celebration of London life - a feast and a puzzle for the eyes. Continuing his series of grid-based works, Faine fills the chequerboard squares with London underground stations, each station is circled in the colour of the primary tube-line that runs through it, as well as by an image that is representative of the character, location, name or culture of that station. Text is layered over the grid with consecutive letters spelling an A-Z of London localities, and on top of this is a larger spiral of letters and numbers representing London postcodes.
