An exhibition featuring a grid of thousands of lights will captivate audiences this summer after going on show at the University of Plymouth.
Submergence is an immersive installation developed by Squidsoup, whose works pioneer the use of light, sound and technology.
It has been shown in over 70 spaces, events and festivals on six continents and is on display in The Levinsky Gallery, within the University’s Roland Levinsky Building, until Saturday 9 August.
A series of workshops will also be held for autistic people, as while Submergence was designed as a playful experience, people with autism have reported feeling calmer, more focused and more engaged while experiencing it.
Submergence presents itself as a physical cube of presence and energy that places visitors within a series of abstracted scenes and energy fields.
There are five distinct movements, each with its own ambience and dynamic forces, played in an ascending sequence of intensity and culminating in an ecstatic crescendo.
Professor Chris Bennewith
