Choose Love x Jon Hopkins

Today we went to the Southbank Centre to see an immersive exhibition called Choose Love x Jon Hopkins.

When we walked in it was an absolute delight the room was filled with fog and the temperature was like being in a fridge.

Description

Part of Harry Styles’ Meltdown and Refugee Week.

Celebrate the strength and resilience of people seeking sanctuary through painting, sound and visual design.

To mark Refugee Week, and this year’s theme of ‘courage’, Choose Love curates an immersive and captivating audiovisual installation bringing together incredible art created by refugees around the world, in partnership with refugee-led organisations and community groups.

Accompanying the art, composer Jon Hopkins’ generative original score, developed in collaboration with Brian Eno, beautifully explores ideas of home, safety and belonging.

Visual artist Dan Tombs layers the paintings with projected imagery that appears to float above and around you, immersing you in the power and creativity of the artists.
