Constable 250: The Rivers and Skies - Art Installation
The Rivers and Skies is the title of an art project by artists Tom Hobden and Phoebe Stapleton that aims to celebrate the 250th Anniversary of the birth of John Constable.
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
The artists will transform stories from the community into an immersive, multi-sensory installation at Flatford; a patchwork of projections, soundscape, and immersive visual design which will become a bridge between two worlds, and a connecting message of the significance of who we are, where we live and how we create. The project will invite us to see ourselves and our communities as part of an ongoing artistic terrain where personal histories are held, remembered, and elevated.
The Rivers and Skies is made possible through a co-commission from the National Trust and the Essex Cultural Diversity project, supported by Arts Council England.
