A monochromatic immersive experience of monumental proportions.
A series of three-dimensional projections will magically transform the famous architecture of Durham’s UNESCO World Heritage Site into an immersive display of mind-bending and meditative geometric shapes. Spanish artist Javier Riera plays with and echoes the structure of the Cathedral and surrounding Durham University buildings on Palace Green, seeking out the hidden qualities and dimensions of familiar facades and transforming them with dynamic patterns and shapes.
Javier Riera’s work is influenced by the Land Art movement, where ‘time, place, relativity, and experience’ are the key concepts. He transformed Raby Castle with dynamic geometrical light for Lumiere 2021.
