Evening Glory

Light Installation on The Old Man of Coniston FRED Festival of Site Specific Art 2005 A chain of thirteen lights around the summit of The Old Man of Coniston; a spectacle, a celebration and even a love token, to one of the most iconic mountain views in England. Flickering into sight at dusk, intensifying with darkness but fading towards midnight. Pinpoints of light shining from the intense darkness of autumn fells, evoking the awe and mystery of night and that false illusion of the celestial sphere upon which the mind projects, not only the stars, but the characters of mythology.
