This ambitious project by Gavin Turk – in collaboration with Photo London, Somerset House and Ben Browns Fine Arts – featured the installation of his giant bronze egg sculpture, Oeuvre, on the Embankment terrace.
The sculpture served as an invitation to the world’s photographers to collaborate on an art installation titled: Gavin Turk - Portrait of an egg. Entries were submitted to www.gavinturkegg.art and were displayed in a public installation as part of Photo London 2019.
