Every day, 104 people are diagnosed with blood cancer in the UK. To represent this visually, we reached out to patient groups to find 104 people who would participate in the creation of an artwork. 

We worked with them to create an installation of giant sculptural names.

The names were arranged around Paternoster Square in patterns that reflect the way crowds naturally form and group together.

The stories encourage the square’s thousands of daily visitors to stop and take a moment to interact and learn more.
