Multi coloured and mesmerising, this UK premiere from German artist Stephanie Lüning will transform Greenwich Peninsula with mountains of rainbow coloured foam.

Marvel as this ephemeral installation is created live by the artist, growing, reproducing and constantly changing as it envelopes architectural features.

This sublime and entrancing transformation of public space explores the limits of painting as the artist selects and blends colours which take mountainous form and dimensions before the artwork finally disappears.

FAQs

Can I bring my pet?

Unfortunately due to health and safety regulations pets are not allowed inside barriered spaces at GDIF events, with the exception of registered service animals.

Can I arrive later than 6pm?

Yes – the event will start at 6pm but you can stay for as little or as long as you like. It is a durational artwork.
