Taking place during the popular Residents Festival weekend and Ice Trail, the York BID will be bringing ‘Reunion’, an eye-catching art installation by Kumquat Lab, to St Sampson Square, to encourage the local community to come together post-Christmas.
Taking the form of curved light arches, the rotating colour patterns are inspired by the movements of bodies revolving in a circle. With its inviting, ever-evolving colour patterns and glowing arches, ‘Reunion’ creates a calming light space, and visitors are encouraged to interact with the artwork.
Commenting on the exciting installation, York BID’s Executive Director, Andrew Lowson said: “People sometimes need a lift when all the excitement of Christmas is over, and the nights are still dark. We hope people will welcome the opportunity to come into the city to see this exciting artwork, stay a while, and visit some local businesses while they’re here.”
‘Reunion’ will be in place from 16th January until 6th February within the city of York. Watch this space!
