The new artwork 'Angels of History' at St James Station features angelic figures in desolate landscapes, created using traditional Roman mosaic techniques by artists Quinlan and Hastings.
According to the artists, the angels represent divine intervention in public spaces and are inspired by Michelangelo's Sibyls, marking an artistic transformation for commuters.
Commissioned by Transport for London's Art on the Underground initiative, 'Angels of History' aims to enhance the daily commute with contemporary art and cultural significance.
The installation in the Grade I-listed St James Station reinforces the idea of integrating art into public transport, making commuting a more enriching experience.
