  • 8 Blind Light exhibition

    Some components of Blind Light are very conceptual and you'd need to be in touch with your 'artistic' side to fully grasp. Others though, are simply downright fun and interesting, and it's these that are no doubt drawing the crowds to the Hayward Gallery. The two highlights would be 'Blind Light' - a large glass room filled with gas and mist where you can't see more than 2 feet in front of you. The catch is there are about 25 other people in there with you. The idea is to 'be disoriented by light - which usually does exactly the opposite'. The second highlight is 'Event Horizon' - which takes art out of the Hayward and across London. Stand on an observation deck and look out over the London skyline to see more than 30 life size statues, some more than 1.5km away, dotted on rooftops and staring back you. The idea is that 'you have become the piece of art, the thing being watched and looked at'. Ends in August so get amongst it!
