Raining Cats and Dogs
Have you ever dreamt of stepping into a painting?
Go take an awe inspiring journey into the world of Van Gogh, one of the greatest artistic geniuses of the 19th century, exploring his life, his work and his secrets through cutting edge 360 degree digital projections and a spectacular sound show.
This show is still on in at All Saints Church on Highcross Street in Leicester and I cannot recommend it highly enough.
An illuminated planet Earth sculpture has gone on display at Derby Cathedral, having won praise elsewhere in the country. Gaia is by UK artist Luke Jerram. The work will opened to the public on 22 September and will remain in place until 16 October.
Gaia is a touring artwork measuring seven metres in diameter and created from 120dpi detailed NASA imagery of the Earth’s surface. The artwork provides the unique opportunity to see our planet on this scale, floating in three-dimensions above the nave of the Cathedral.
This spectacular installation stimulates thought over key issues of climate change, creation, and our place on the Earth. The events programme that runs alongside Gaia invites visitors to enjoy wellbeing events, music, and nature walks.
