POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

At the British Museum exhibition Hawaii: Kingdom of the Ocean, one story stands out for its quiet tragedy.

In 1824, King Liholiho (Kamehameha II) and Queen Kamāmalu travelled to London to meet George IV. While awaiting their audience, both contracted measles and died far from home.

For this moment of remembrance, Studio Waldemeyer created a suspended candle installation above their portraits — a constellation of gentle lights marking loss, distance, and memory across oceans.

A small gesture within a powerful exhibition.

The lighting in Ancient India: living traditions is surprising, innovative and inspired by visiting @neasdentemple with the wonderful lighting magician Lucy Record @recordlighting It was such an insightful and special experience walking through the whole exhibition with Lucy to fine tune the lighting to really pick up the detail on some objects, such as the ripples on Tara’s lower garment and incredibly fine patterns on terracotta plaques of powerful yakshis (female nature spirits).

Inside @neasdentemple, devotional images are brightly lit from below, above and behind, ensuring the sacred images are the focus of the intricately carved garba griha (‘womb chamber’). This is also the approach that Lucy took to light the sculptures in the exhibition and it has worked brilliantly to highlight them.

There are also other approaches that increase the immersive experience. As you enter the foyer, you will see projections of @neerscreenprints fabulous lotus block print patterns on the walls and floor, immediately immersing you in the ‘living traditions’ part of the show. Then, as you wander into the Nature Spirits section, you are surrounded by vibrant shades of green that gobo projections shape into plants and leaves. Similarly, the special sections with the contemporary films have lotus flower projections above and below to create a sense of harmonious inclusion.

My favourite sections are the fabulous central plinths with rings of lotus flower lighting like mandala patterns around the base, and golden strings emulating divine rays of sunshine glistening from ceiling to the sculptures. They draw and keep your attention on the devotional images. Just brilliant!

Other sections have shifting light effects behind brightly coloured fabrics that serve to highlight the objects nearby. And you can’t miss the levitating lights behind some exceptional loans from @nmnewdelhi in the Jain section.

Ancient India: living traditions is open until 19th October and is Free to visit on Fridays!

For the @britishlibrary 's 'Medieval Women: In Their Own Words' exhibition, we developed a technique to represent the women featured in the exhibition.

We overlaid silhouettes with details from brass rubbings and printed them life-size on translucent fabric to create these ethereal suggestive figures, that you encounter throughout the exhibition. Some of them come to life as projection. Printed quotes and their words in audio accompany these figures.

At the end of the exhibition journey, they come together as a symphony of voices.

The exhibition is still open until 2nd March 2025

I designed the @britishlibrary 's current exhibition 'Medieval Women: In Their Own Words'. The show celebrates the rich and complex lives of women in Europe during the Middle Ages through their own voices, visions and experiences.

The exhibition design creates an ethereal medieval townscape for the story to unfold. As visitors move through the scenography, they encounter life-size silhouettes of the featured women and their voices.
