Walton and Aintree Trust’s new neurological building’s waiting area and linked corridors.

Colour and movement amongst other possible directions, where suggested as themes for inspiration.

For this commission we developed a series of large format lenticular kaleidoscopic images for the waiting room, as well as a series of static large format images for the corridors.

Through various meetings with management and clinical staff we identified a series of images taken from the brain, nerves and synapses using various imaging techniques including MRI scans. Three kaleidoscopic collages where then created for each image. These phases of images where then interlaced, printed and aligned behind the lenticular lenses to create the pieces for the waiting room.

For the corridors we took the still images from the individual kaleidoscopes and had them

printed on 1m x 1m Aluminium Dibond.

LENTICULARS

A lenticular lens is an array of magnifying lenses, designed so that when viewed from slightly different angles, different images are magnified. The most common example is the lenses used in lenticular printing, where the technology is used to give an illusion of depth, or to make images that appear to change or move as the image is viewed through movement in passing, or from different angles

This commission was a joint enterprise with associate Jim Sharp.
