Spectra

An immersive sculpture exploring how humans are affected by natural and artificial light

Touring Artwork

Spectra is a large-scale immersive sculpture created in collaboration with music producer K-LONE. Originally presented in partnership with Simple Things at The Station in Bristol. It has also featured at Glastonbury Festival & at the MAD Arts gallery in Florida.

Volumetric light, mapped projection, and intricate sound design immerse audiences in moments of healing, disorientation, and overstimulation. Taking them on a journey from the sun-worshipping cultures of Ancient Egypt to the contemporary cultures of modern cities across the world.

Spectra took its inspiration from the book ‘Chasing The Sun’ by Linda Geddes; conversations with leading UK historians, scientists, astronomists and ecologists helped shape its development.

The project was made possible with the support of Arts Council England and the
Department for Digital, Culture, Media, and Sport.
