The UK's first ever man-made fresh water public bathing pond is a piece of innovative Land Art, within a working construction site area of London's King's Cross. The 40m long, natural, chemical-free pond is the creation of Ooze Architects (Eva Pfannes and Sylvain Hartenberg) and artist Marjetica Potrc. Entitled 'Of Soil and Water': the King's Cross Pond Club, the piece encourages visitors to enter the water and participate in the installation as a piece of experiential art.
