A quick heads-up for your January What’s On radar: a free public artwork is popping up in East London and it’s designed to be written all over.

What is it?
Reflections I is a large-scale interactive installation by London-based artist Russ Jones, appearing in East Village, Stratford. A 2.4-metre mirrored cube will be in situ throughout January, inviting passers-by to stop, reflect and add their own notes, doodles and thoughts directly onto the surface.

Each side of the cube poses a different prompt – from self-reflection to questioning ‘Is this art?’ – turning a simple mirror into a colourful, collective artwork shaped by everyone who takes part.

Where: East Village, Stratford
When: Throughout January 2026
