High Arctic - National Maritime Museum London

by Luke Malcolm

Apologies in advance if this isn't vastly NZ centric... I've just finished the build of 'High Arctic', an artistic interactive installation at National Maritime Museum in London with United Visual Artists. http://www.nmm.ac.uk/visit/exhibitions/on-display/high-arctic/ 'The installation was created as a response to the arctic journey of Matt Clark of UVA, who traveled with the arts and climate science foundation Cape Farewell to the Arctic archipelago of Svalbard in September 2010 aboard the 100-year old Dutch schooner, the Noorderlicht.' I don't usually post the work that I do with UVA, but given that a lot of people travel through London and it is on for six months, I thought it might be of interest to people. As a freelance NZ art coder, you can know that kiwi claw prints are pattered all over this one. Warm Regards, Luke -- Luke Malcolm email(a)lukemalcolm.com
