Luxmuralis Illuminates Old Royal Naval College with Ancient Worlds
Luxmuralis returns to the Old Royal Naval College with 'Lost Worlds', a light and sound installation inspired by ancient civilizations. Created by sculptor Peter Walker with a score by David Harper, the work reimagines Etruscan, Egyptian, Roman, Mayan, and Anglo-Saxon art through projection. The installation continues the site's artistic legacy, begun by Sir James Thornhill's Painted Hall in 1726.
