This project explores the forgotten history of Peerless Pool — London’s first public bathing pond. Through ceramic texture collection, historical collage, and picture book illustrations, the work reimagines how this green space once looked and felt. The story follows a girl who time-travels to the past, experiencing fishing, swimming, and community life. It invites viewers to reflect on urban change and the hidden life of the city.
