Listen
"Chorus" art installation by United Visual Artists in the newly restored Howard Assembly Room at Leeds Grand Theatre. A couple of local flickr-ers were invited to come along to the preview evening to take some photos.
Suspended from the ceiling are 8 light-emitting pendulums that swing from side to side in various patterns to an ethereal soundtrack by Mira Calix.
The assembly room itself is newly renovated and opened to the public as an art space, as part of the multi-million renovation of the Leeds Grand Theatre.
For this photo i wanted to demonstrate that Chorus was as much about the sound as it was the visuals, so asked the amazingly patient stripey anne to pose as if she was cupping her ear to hear it. Used a bit of fill-in flash so actually looks a lot lighter in there than in reality - took ages to get the focus right!
Chorus runs from 6th to 28th February, Monday to Saturday and is free :-)
