Flock of Seagulls Bag of Stolen Chips is a gateway or ‘welcome pavilion’ for the former gasworks site at Ship Street, from where visitors will be able to view the entire site and imagine how it might be developed in the future. Its cylindrical form and its open lattice-work metal construction echo the gasometers that once stood on the site, while its brightly painted panels suggest an altogether more post-industrial atmosphere.
