Time By Luxmuralis at Beverley Minster
Time: New Light and Sound Spectacular show by Luxmuralis
Beverley Minster is set to host a breathtaking spectacle with "Time," an innovative light and sound show created by the acclaimed artistic collaboration Luxmuralis.
This immersive event will transform the interior of the historic minster, filling it with dazzling light, dynamic soundscapes, and multiple projection installations.
"Time" promises to be an extraordinary exploration of humanity's relationship with the concept of time, offering audiences an unforgettable journey through history, science, and imagination.
Visitors will be guided through a series of captivating installations that portray humans as seen through different eras, exploring the fascinating theories of relativity, and the text of H.G. Wells' "The Time Machine."
Through the immersive projected artworks attendees will traverse wormholes, venture inside the intricate workings of clocks, and experience a dramatic narrative that spans from the present day back to the very beginning of everything. The grand finale in the cathedral's nave will take spectators on a mesmerising voyage through the epochs of humanity, ultimately reaching the formation of our planet, creating a profound and awe-inspiring conclusion to this unique event.
About Luxmuralis
‘Luxmuralis’ is the name given to the artistic collaboration Peter Walker Sculptor and David Harper Composer, who specialise in immersive fine art, light and sound installations around the UK and abroad. Creating works across multiple media and presentation formats.
Luxmuralis create artwork that explores and develops the fine art tradition through new media, and place contemporary fine art, light, and sound production in an art historical context. Luxmuralis take art onto the streets and provide access to visual artwork in public as well as unexpected places.
Luxmuralis created the first ever model and method introducing such unique installations inside the interiors of Cathedrals and sacred spaces – paving the way for such spaces to be transformed and encouraging new audiences to engage with artwork as well as the space it envelops. Audiences are immersed in a fine art experience that brings such ancient monumental and sacred spaces to life. Viewers become part of the artwork as they physically journey through the spectacular sound and light which is described as ‘evocative and powerful’ by hundreds of thousands who have experienced Luxmuralis.
Fine art, light and sound reflects closely on the history, heritage and art history of unique places and brings together the contemporary and the ancient. More than a light show, Luxmuralis create contemporary exhibitions whose core is always close to the sense of place, they are credited for creating the ‘stained glass windows of our time’.
Luxmuralis spectacular sound and light installations have been seen in a variety of places including most recently: The Tower of London, Westminster Abbey; Chatsworth House; St Pauls Minneapolis; Limburg Dom; Oxford City museums; and many UK Cathedrals.
