From the Knees of my Nose to the Belly of my Toes

From the Knees of my Nose to the Belly of my Toes was a sculpture and public art installation by the artist Alex Chinneck that existed in Cliftonville, Margate, from 2013 to 2014.[1] The house was vacant for eleven years prior to Chinneck's project, and was subsequently restored as housing.[2] The installation created the appearance that the building's facade had slipped down and was built at a cost of £100,000 with materials donated by British industry members who collaborated on the project.[3]
