Luminarium by Architects of Air
Presented by Creative Barking and Dagenham, in partnership with Barking Riverside Limited (BRL) and with the support of Riverside School
Welcome to a wonderful world of light and colour
A special addition to this year's line-up is Arborialis Luminarium – a large immersive artwork by Architects of Air. Entering the Luminarium will surround you in a rainbow of colour and calming sound. Come and explore its maze of winding paths and soaring domes.
Inspired by the natural world, Arborialis Luminarium is a dazzling inflatable sculpture featuring tree forms and leaf patterns. This accessible and sensory artwork is suitable for all ages and will delight and surprise visitors.
Arborialis Luminarium is designed by Alan Parkinson, with a soothing soundtrack created by Irish composer Dr Michael Morris. Previously exhibiting internationally in Barcelona, Adelaide, Perth, Christchurch and Auckland, this is the first time Arborialis Luminarium has been seen in London.
