November 2007 - Public art

The original:

The brief:
I went to Paris last weekend from the new Eurostar terminal at St Pancras station in London, which has had a multi-million pound overhaul to take the new tracks. One of the features is a huge and rather bizarre statue of two lovers in the main hall.

Well, it's OK if you like Woolworths kitsch, but I think we can do better. So here's another photo of St Pancras, before the statue was installed. It's a slightly tricky angle, being shot from below; and, as you can see, the building work needs finishing off. But can you think of a more appropriate piece of public art for this space?

Finished work:
