Does this thing have a googlable name? Sky glass gets me nothing. Is that just your description of it?
Failing a name, have you another photo that supplies some context?
Please feel free to totally ignore these questions. I know how annoying these kinds of demands for further info can be. I understand that I have no right to any answer.LikeLike

No, perfectly reasonable question. There are these large letters R-U-N covered in mirrored glass in the Park. This is the top of one of the U uprights. Photographed before here – http://mickhartley.typepad.com/blog/2015/05/olympic-blue.html
Or you can scroll down here – https://queenelizabetholympicpark.co.uk/~/media/qeop/files/public/misc%20documents/artinthepark_fieldguide_digital.pdf “RUN is a glass and stainless steel artwork made up of three huge letters by artist Monica Bonvicini, each measuring nine metres high. Inspired by the many references to running in popular songs, its meaning is deliberately ambiguous, both serious and satirical. The artwork represents a bold architectural statement on one of the highest points of the Park.” So there you go. A bold architectural statement.LikeLike
