Pablo Bronstein, Beach Hut is most popular around 4 AM on Thursdays. It's most quiet on Wednesdays.

Bronstein has described his Beach Hut in the style of Nicholas Hawksmoor as a 'monument to architecture', paying homage to the quintessentially English architectural vocabulary of the 18th Century Baroque architect, Nicholas Hawksmoor. Situated next to other brightly coloured beach huts on the water front, alongside the Council's mundane arrangements for park maintenance, Bronstein's sculpture's dramatic presence invokes a delightful and piquant sense of folly.

Below, at pedestrian street level, the Recycling Point for Luck and Wishes is embedded in the bridge structure alongside the street crossing. Strange Cargo invites us to affirm our own perception and relationship to luck, and how our attitudes might affect our future.

There were 10 clocks in all, with just one remaining.
