Sealed off with what looks like metres of clingfilm is this circular piece of park furniture in Wyck Gardens, a small park located between Loughborough Junction and Brixton.
Art aficionados may notice the almost abstract penis daubed on the top part of the shelter.
A closer look at the plastic wrapping with a tower from the Loughborough Estate in the background.
Inside we can see a more literal interpretation of a penis, with added ejaculatory action.
Providing an intellectual counterpoint to the more graphic artwork is this unexpected collection of symbols.
The orb contains several seats, and we can assume that their close proximity to each other has led to it being taped off as a precaution against coronavirus.
The plastic wrapping has been pulled away in places.
Side view.
