Liquid Space at Lumiere UK 2011

Studio-Roosegaarde_Liquid-Space-3.jpeg‘Lumiere‘ is an exhibition which will illuminate Durham’s historical buildings, streets and bridges for four nights in November; including a special exhibition of the interactive light artwork ‘Liquid Space‘.

LIQUID SPACE 6.0 is an interactive space that becomes physically bigger, smaller, and brighter in relation to human behavior. As an organic fusion of mechanisms, embedded electronics, sound, and LEDs, the artwork creates a playful dialogue with its visitors.

The first version of LIQUID SPACE 6.0 premiered in Japan as a commission for the Yamaguchi Center for Arts and Media. The project’s behavior evolves in relation to its visitors, creating a sensual coexistence. It can now be enjoyed across the city of Durham over four spectacular days.

Lumiere 2011 Artichoke, 17-20 November, Durham UK. To find out more about the exhibition, including a programme of events as well as places to stay please visit www.lumieredurham.co.uk or plusMOOD.
