Cathedral Square is transformed with this totally
immersive "Luminarium" that combines design, engineering and
filtered light to create a spectacular world of saturated
colour.
Travel along a fantastical maze of winding paths
through chambers filled with soaring domes, geometric patterns and
gothic designs.
Designed by Alan Parkinson, ARBORIA is dedicated
to the theme of trees and the installation offers a dazzling maze
of winding paths and soaring domes - between eight and ten metres
tall - that rise to a brightly luminous tree trunk and branches that reach
overhead.
ARBORIA also features an amazing sound experience which originated
in the Ecuadorian Cloud Forest where musician and soundscape
ecologist, Alice Eldridge, made recordings for biodiversity
monitoring. To the forest and wildlife sounds Alice has added her
own piano composition.
