HEAD SPACE

摘要

Light and lighting was very much in evidence at September's London Design Festival and designjunction, not least in the shape of darc room and that month's ILP 'How to be brilliant...' talk with Rebecca Hutchison, as reported on in November's Lighting, Journal. But another lighting-led eye-catcher was 'Head Above Water', a sculpture created by British designer Steuart Padwick and displayed at Queen's Stone Jetty on London's South Bankbetween 15-23 September. The striking piece of public art was created to support 'Time to Change', the mental health anti-stigma campaign. Taking the form of a giant wooden head elevated above the Thames, the 9m-high interactive sculpture was designed to stand as a symbol of bravery, compassion, positivity and change for those who have come through or are confronting mental health issues.
