A Slice of Reality is a sliced vertical section of an ocean going sand dredger, standing on the foreshore of the Thames. It was created at the same time as the Millennium Dome and is exposed to the elements. It is possible to actually visit it on Open House Day. The towers of Canary Wharf provide a suitably dramatic backdrop across the Thames.
