Voices Travelling As Light Down Hope Street
About Me
- What is the Hope Street Project?
- The Hope Street Project is an innovative art installation, which will link the Liverpool's two iconic Cathedrals during September and November 2008. The project uses two lasers - one visible during hours of darkness and the second an invisible beam carrying voices and sounds between the two Cathedrals. Voices travel as light down Hope Street. The voices also vibrate the strings of a guitar creating a chordal and harmonic backdrop to the delicate tapestry of voices. The overall sound created will offer a gentle and discreet ambience for reflection and contemplation. Visitors to the Cathedrals will be able to hear the sounds created by the installation in both Cathedrals at the designated times below.
