This Winter we've got an exclusive opportunity for you to se 'Nova' a spectacular 3D illuminated installation, a collaboration by local sculptor Stephen Newby and Lucy McDonnell. The Nova artwork is based on the mythical Star of the East which astronomers now believe was actually a nova. As a spectator, you will feel like you are experiencing a nova, or 'new’ star – mighty and dazzling.

Nova Star Installation by Studio Vertigo
25 Nov, 2024

Studio Vertigo is a collaboration between Lucy McDonnell and Stephen Newby who work internationally to create light
installations and sculpture. They create work that questions
the relationship between objects, viewers and their environment.
Their work has been shown internationally and recently been
commissioned for Amsterdam Light Festival, Lumiere Durham, Vivid Sydney, CPH Copenhagen Light Festival, iLight Singapore and Taiwan Lantern Festival.
Nova is a bold sculptural form, a visually complex
lantern that also comes to life with smoke effects. It has over
56,000 laser profiled apertures which allow the internal light
source to shine through its reflective metal surface, creating
swirling galaxy patterns on the star and projecting light onto
the ground.
See Nova on display now and follow the star to our evening Winter Social event coming up on 5 December. Join us for an evening embracing the festive spirit with live seasonal music, complimentary drinks on arrival and a seasonal gifting options a'plenty. Get your free ticket to our Winter Social below!
