Chorus at the Wapping Project

Posted by andrew on Tuesday, June 29th, 2010

The brilliant Wapping Project is host to another thought provoking, stimulating art installation in its basement gallery space. The Chorus experience, which runs until 18th July, is a series of swinging pendulums each with their own built-in soundtrack. As you walk under each pendulum you hear its sound emanate directly above you, which can range from sharp rhythmic sneezes to beautiful searing violin strings. Each pendulum contains a circular light which changes and flashes according to the soundtrack. The overall impact is stunning – more like a performance than an art installation.

I’d also highly recommend the food at the Wapping Project if all that art makes you hungry!
