Introducing James’s latest masterpiece born from collaboration with Battersea Power Station’s Lift 109 Experience, one of London's most iconic landmarks re-imagined in type-written form.

James embarked on a remarkable journey to create this piece, spending approximately three weeks in May 2023 meticulously typing from his 1960's Olympia SG3 typewriter. Positioned on-location atop the glass lift observation deck protruding from one of Battersea's chimneys, James was granted unique access to breath-taking panoramic views of the London skyline.

Containing over 1 million typed letters, numbers, and punctuation marks, this artwork is a testament to James's skill and dedication. While not quite matching the 6 million bricks used to construct the power station, hidden within the intricacies of the drawing are messages that pay homage to the building’s 83-year history.

This is a limited edition of 400 and each print measures 50cm x 50cm, capturing the grandeur of Battersea Power Station in exquisite detail. You can choose to purchase the print on its own or opt for the framed version, ready to adorn your space. Each drawing is appended with a certificate of authenticity.

We are thrilled to offer this artwork printed on high-quality, acid-free, archival German Etching Giclée paper from Hahnemühle, ensuring that every nuance and subtlety is faithfully reproduced.
