S&DR200 Presents: STEAM to the Future 🚂💨Did you know? STEAM to the Future in Japanese is 未来への蒸気
This family friendly exhibition, following Railway Pioneers: Celebrating the Railway Rockstars of the Past, is transporting us into the present and beyond. STEAM to the Future takes a playful look at the near and BlueSky thinking using commissioned art pieces showcasing the design and science behind the rail industry.
S&DR200 has commissioned an immersive installation by A.A.Murakami (AKA Studio Swine) inspired by steam as a source of power, and the chance to create a 22nd century inspired locomotive using virtual reality software.
All of our railway contributors are looking to the future and this is a glimpse into just some of the work that is underway to ensure the railways continue for another 200 years and how the rail industry is gearing up for a second revolution driven by the growing green technologies sector in the Tees Valley and County Durham.
Presented by S&DR200, ‘STEAM to the Future’ is the second of two exciting exhibitions being held in the Exhibition Hall* at Hopetown Darlington.
In partnership with: LNER, Hitachi Rail, Network Rail, Cummins.
Delivered by: Darlington Borough Council, Durham County Council & Stockton Borough Council.
Major Funders: Arts Council England, Tees Valley Combined Authority.
*The Exhibition Hall is sponsored by Darlington Building Society.
