Explore the movement of light and help create a cosmic installation at Tate Exchange

Join Kettle’s Yard to transform Tate Exchange into an evolving cosmic installation and experiment with projections, reflective sculptures and mark-making.

Drop-in and create light-reflecting sculptures, colourful collages and slides to project and overlay in the space to make new patterns, relationships and constellations. The installation will be evolving throughout the day as new artworks are created and contributed. The final installation will return and be displayed at Kettle’s Yard on Saturday 13 July.

Everyone is welcome.

Light Years takes inspiration from artworks and the architecture at Kettle’s Yard and Tate. Activities have been co-devised by Josh Bilton and Kettle’s Yard partners Cambridge Community Arts, inviting visitors to imagine they are adding to an expanding constellation, exploring the movement of light, planetary alignment and astrological forms.

About Kettle's Yard

Part of the University of Cambridge, Kettle’s Yard is a beautiful house with a remarkable collection of modern art and a gallery that hosts modern and contemporary art exhibitions. To celebrate the creativity and culture of Kettle’s Yard’s neighbouring communities in North Cambridge, we have been collaborating with Cambridge Community Arts and artist Josh Bilton to devise activities which explore directing and shaping the movement of light.
