Chorus at Grand theatre


Chorus is a light installation by United Visual Artists (UVA) with the music by Mira Calix. Eight moving pendulums, suspended from the barrel-vaulted ceiling of the Howard Assembly Room, create a hypnotising performance of light and sound in this stunning new art space for Leeds.
I was mesmerized by this Installation. It forms a peaceful environement. However, some of it sounded very unusual. Overall i enjoyed it, I sat for almost an hour watching. Probably one of the best Installations I've seen.
Unfortunately it is no longer exhibited at the Grand theatre but you can watch by clicking on the link below:

Richard Barker


Blenheim Walk- Private View
"His work has evolved through an unhealthy obsession with eBay, specifically with the section devoted to modernist furniture. This unlikely source of Bakers inspiration row upon row of Earnes and Panton Chairs, often tired, neglected and badly photographed are his coveted objects. Unable to own them, he has managed to acquire them through other means- by a considered process of layering, scraping re-drawing and glazing he carefully renders these objects his own"
