About
The Art House is delighted to announce its winter exhibition, Paradise Carpet by the British Muslim artist Zarah Hussain. The exhibition combines a stunning fusion of animation, immersive light projections and bold colourful artworks.
Opening to coincide with Light Up Wakefield, Hussain will present a new innovative and imaginative participatory exhibition that explores how spirituality, geometry, technology and traditional Islamic design meet. The artist will collaborate with first-year students at the Academy of Live Technology based at Production Park in Wakefield. Together they will create an installation in which a digital carpet is central to the gallery. Overhead projectors weave intricate, ever-changing patterns onto a soft floor. Visitors can sit, walk, pray or meditate while being bathed in soft coloured light. The gallery will be calming, spiritual and contemplative, accompanied by a specially commissioned ambient soundtrack to create a warm, welcoming and sensually enveloping space for everyone.
