‘Zenith’ - Voices from the Sea

Taking their cue from the stars used by sailors for navigation in the past, these celestial kinetic sculptures are designed to act like giant prisms, splitting light into shards of colour and unpredictable reflections.
An immersive installation, presented at Hull's Queen Victoria Square, where the public are encouraged to explore and take a seat amongst an evolving sound piece emanating from the stars, each slowly rotating, emitting their own mesmerising sonic character, uniting to create a magical otherworldly atmosphere.
Amongst the ethereal sonic landscape created by this piece, it is possible to faintly hear maritime voices, fog horns, echoes from sailors singing their sea shanties. The work and love songs of those who helped build this city and its industry.
The stars element was originally commissioned by Culture Liverpool and Central Liverpool BID for the ‘Follow the Stars’ project.

Commissioned by Hull City of Maritime
