Turner Prize-winning artist Mark Wallinger found six models who were willing to pose nude as the goddess Diana in a bathroom for visitors to be peep at. Wallinger believes the peep show will allow visitors to experience the feeling of "peeking and being caught at the scene," which is what the original art pieces portray.
