Shadows & LightUnited Visual Artists, ‘Momentum’, 2014London’s Barbican Ga
Shadows & LightUnited Visual Artists, ‘Momentum’, 2014London’s Barbican Gallery commissioned United Visual Artists to create a new work for the Curve in 2014. Coinciding with their 10th anniversary, UVA presented ‘Momentum’, an immersive installation that combines light, sound and movement.Drawing on physics and digital technology, UVA turned the Curve into a spatial instrument, installing a sequence of pendulum-like elements throughout the 90 meter long gallery to create an evolving composition of light and sound. The pendulums – sometimes moving in unexpected ways – project shadows and planes of light across the 6 meter-high walls and curved floor of the space. Visitors were invited to explore the room at their own pace, and their movement through the gallery shapes their individual experience. -- source link
