Arts project lights up Salford Estate
Fifteen storeys of a Salford tower block were transformed into a multi-coloured light show pulsing in time to music and sound when a special arts project celebrated the creativity of the local community.
Organised by staff and students from the University of Salford, and supported by Salix Homes and The Islington Estate Tenants’ and Residents’ Association (TIETARA), the event saw the grounds of Canon Hussey Court on the Islington Estate transformed into a stage for an evening of music, food and entertainment against the backdrop of a giant projection screen showing art and videos produced by members of the community.
And the Canon Hussey building played a central part in proceedings, with green, amber and red lighting in the stairwell running from the ground floor to the top of the building reacting to the sound from the stage to mimic an audio level indicator, giving a dramatic light array visible from vantage points across Salford and Manchester.
