Architect: Frank Gehry
For years, Frank Gehry has been concerned with fish imagery. Here, his fish fixation is manifested by a 35 metre x 54 metre fish made of steel lattice. The fish marks the start of the Olympic Port area and is placed at the base of two landmark towers. As an artwork its grabs the eye for its scale and as its copper colour shines in the bright sunlight.
