Britain's What's On Event Guide
Echoes of Industry Exhibition
Echoes of Industry is a public sculpture installation at Southside Shopping Centre that reimagines Wandsworth’s industrial heritage through material transformation and collective memory. Created using reclaimed construction materials, found objects, and community contributions, the nine sculptures reflect cycles of labour, fragmentation, and renewal rooted in the borough’s evolving identity. Some elements of the work were co-created during the Co-Creating Wandsworth workshops with local participants, embedding lived experience and public voices directly into the installation.
Visitors are invited to walk among the sculptures, reflect on their materials and forms, and contribute personal responses, memories, associations, or reflections, by leaving their own “notes of echoes.”
Developed in collaboration with Wandsworth Council, the project is created by artist collective Studio EAST×EAST, with curatorial and graphic design led by Nova Ma.
