Shadowing

Shadowing is a set of modified streetlamps that capture and replay the actions of those who walk underneath. The work is installed across a city for months at a time, allowing people to discover the work over time.

The project underscores the communal nature of our public spaces, creating a visual pool of memory for physical expression and play.

Created with Matthew Rosier, and commissioned for the 2014 Playable City Award, the work has since been installed in Bristol, London, York, Tokyo, Austin and Paris.
