The Crossness Victorian Pumping Station
September 12, 2023
A series of images taken during a guided tour of this fabulous Victorian building. Opened in 1865, it was built under the management of Sir Joseph Balzagette to channel and clean London's waste water. The Byzantine styled interior was created with extensive use of cast iron, and can be seen to celebrate its simple but vital task of preventing the spread of waterborne disease such as cholera.

The Radić Pavilion was installed at Hauser & Wirth Somerset in March 2015, at the end of Oudolf Field.

Since 2000, the Serpentine Galleries have run an annual programme of temporary structures by internationally-renowned architects. The pavilion sits naturally within the landscape at Hauser & Wirth Somerset, creating a dialogue between the gallery complex and pavilion, and their relationship with the garden.
