About this Event
Tickets available here: The Arab Hall: After-Hours | RBKC Museums
Experience the historic house after dark and be amongst the first to see the new contemporary artist installations in the Arab Hall, as part of the multidisciplinary project
Thursday 31 July, 5:30-8:30pm: From Water, Every Living Thing by Soraya Syed
Calligrapher and artist Soraya Syed, takes the fountain as its conceptual and architectural point of origin. A film of animated gold calligraphy will be projected directly onto the fountain’s black marble basin, where letters appear to float, fragment, and reform in dialogue with the water’s movement and sound, as a sequence of goldfish gradually transforms into script. Join us after-hours for an opportunity to meet Soraya, who will attend in person.
