KICKS 4 TEENAGE Deepa Mann-Kler

STITCH IN TIME 6 A Tim Etchells (UK)

(Northern Ireland) New commission BT Exchange Building

New commission Rosemount Shirt Factory

One of the most successful bands ever to come out of Derry, the Undertones spoke to a generation, reacting against the backdrop of the Troubles by writing songs that reflected on the normality of growing up, of being young and in love. Deepa Mann-Kler’s Teenage Kicks quotes a line from one their most celebrated songs.

Tim Etchells’ steel letters adorned with hundreds of LED lights will measure 23m long. The wording makes a playful but direct reference to the historical context of shirtmaking. It recalls the complete text of the proverb from which it is taken (A Stitch In Time Saves Nine), suggesting ideas of repair and care, and of disaster averted.

Commissioned in collaboration with City of Culture 2013

UPON A TIME 2 TWICE Ocubo (Portugal)

New commission Clock Tower, Ebrington Square

Rising up to 14 metres high above the ground, Symphonie Conique creates a surreal universe of illuminated cones that move and sway in reaction to the crowd.

Sponsored by

The clocktower building on Ebrington Square will be transformed into an imaginary world painted by 120 local children. 8 and 9 year olds from all faith traditions were invited to play a virtual game of consequences, painted onto a model of the building. The children were filmed during the workshops, and the final projection will include footage of them working together as well as their artworks.

EMPTY PLINTH 8 THE Holywell Trust & The Nerve

PROJECTION – 12 PUBLIC DERRY~LONDONDERRY

Centre (N. Ireland) New commission City Walls, Grand Parade

Krzysztof Wodiczko (Poland / USA) New commission Various locations

The Empty Plinth will be the first of a series of installations to be mounted on Walker’s plinth. Consisting of a simple beam of light, it will rise into the sky, a symbolic beacon of hope.

Wodiczko is renowned for his large-scale projections around the world. His work often involves the active participation of a city’s marginalised or estranged residents.

For this new commission, he has been working with community groups and the Verbal Arts Centre to create a mobile artwork that will project testimonies of local people onto the sides of buildings.

10 VOYAGE Novak (UK) New commission Austins Department Store

This piece explores an effect known as ‘regional brain conflict’, it manipulates the connection between the parts of the brain that process written words and the parts that process colour. The installation sees the colours of the Tricolour and the Union Jack spelled out in different colours, causing confusion and questioning the allegiances the flags engender.

This large-scale projection, inspired

by Jules Verne, will see the exterior of the oldest department store in the world transformed by a breathtaking digital projection. Featuring a bespoke score by composer Ed Carter.

(The Netherlands) The Fountain (next to New Gate)

Marbles is a group of large, moulded plastic shapes that interact with people using sound, colour and light. Each ‘marble’ contains LEDs and smart sensors that instinctively respond to human touch, changing their mood from ‘bored’ to ‘excited’, becoming more animated as the audience interacts with them.
