About The Work
In I Came by Tube, Goshka Macuga makes reference to the history and desirability of the London Tube train system. In this apparently aged and sepia-toned photo, a buxom nude holds a map of the underground trains that connect London’s enormous urban landscape. The pastoral image, which celebrates the system’s 150th anniversary, winks and honors the history of the train system and the constant allure of technological innovation.
