UnitedVisualArtists

I just discovered the work of the UnitedVisualArtists through their collaboration with Massive Attack.

They directed Massive Attack's new video "United snakes" which is amazing (must watch it full screen!), but I was really blown away by the installation they did about a year ago at Covent Garden.

Constellation - Covent Garden winter ligths



"Commissioned by Covent Garden, UVA lit up the market halls of Covent Garden with a responsive light installation. Launched as the flagship piece of the winter season program at Covent Garden the installation featured 600 custom-designed mirrored LED tubes hanging above the entire Covent Garden market space. The volumetric arrangement of the tubes created a canvas in which three dimensional light formations were made possible. Constellation was also individually controllable using a custom-designed control panel, giving the installation an intimate connection with the public."
