| 説明 | About the design:Twenty Four Seven is inspired by services like hospitals and buses, which function 24 hours a day. On one side the bus enters the bridge and shows day and sunset and on the other side, the bus leaves the bridge and shows sunset and evening thus depicting the different phases in 24 hours. It reminds us that London buses are available for service twenty four seven.About the artist:Deven Bhurke is a graphic designer, illustrator and artist based in Hampshire. He has a versatile style of art with a special interest in pencil sketches. He has designed and painted sculptures for similar public art events across the country.Sponsored by Abellio.2014 saw a number of anniversaries which will help us tell this story. It's been 60 years since the creation of the iconic Routemaster, 75 years since the launch of the RT-Type bus and 100 years since the world's first mass-produced motor bus, the B-Type 'Battle Bus' that carried soldiers to the frontline during the First World War.Our buses are the arteries of the capital, moving large numbers of people around the city - across the centre and to the extremities. They have affected great social change and continue to offer a lifeline to a diverse range of Londoners. Buses also support the needs of our growing city and in turn help London to function as the engine room of the UK's economy.London is naturally proud of its bus network, one of the largest and most accessible in the world. Despite its size, the bus network remains flexible and able to adapt to the challenges of operating in a constantly changing streetscape.To meet the future needs of the city, while minimising the environmental impact, we are using innovation and new green technology. Our fleet is already one of the cleanest in the UK, but we're constantly striving to see how new technology can further reduce our impact on the environment.The bus sculptures, which are 2.5m long, 1m high and 0.5m wide, are painted and adorned by well-known and aspiring artists to showcase the vital role that London’s buses play in the life and economy of the city and the UK as a whole.Londoners and visitors to the city will get the chance to discover the bus sculptures, which will be organised in clusters, on foot by following public art trails in four areas of the capital – three in central London and one in outer London. |
