Steven Claydon London Pixel, aluminium edition
Last updated: 18 October 2026
London Pixel is a small aluminium brick by the British artist Steven Claydon, stamped with his initials and its edition number. Steven Claydon's London Pixel comes from the same family as London Pixel Array 21, a row of 21 aluminium bricks in the Tate collection. Kingsgate Workshops in north-west London sells the painted Frog version, an edition of 4, for £260, and the bare aluminium one, an edition of 8, for £250.
What Steven Claydon's London Pixel is
Each piece is a single cast aluminium block, 20 x 9 x 6cm. That is close to the size of a house brick laid on its side, so it reads as a building block straight away.
Claydon's London Pixel Array works line these bricks up into larger pieces. Tate holds London Pixel Array 21 from 2012, made from 21 aluminium bricks. Here you get one brick on its own, as a sculpture for a shelf or a desk.
The edition is sold by Kingsgate Workshops Trust, which runs artists' studios and a project space on Kingsgate Road in Kilburn.

The limits
The editions are tiny, at 4 and 8, so once they sell there will be no more.
Kingsgate's shop gives the size and edition but no weight, and no detail on the paint used for the Frog finish.
It is a single brick, so it lacks the impact of the full arrays you might see in a gallery.
Where to buy it in the UK
Kingsgate Workshops sells both versions online. You can see the piece it relates to in Tate's collection record for London Pixel Array 21.
