Promenade

Gavin Lockhart

 

promenade

 

Promenade will be a projection on a series of banners. Acting as a screen, fluttering 3m high panels will capture images of people of all ages enjoying the promenade and seaside. Year 4 pupils of Marine Park First School will be capturing the Victorian era, whilst Tea Dance enthusiasts from North Tyneside will take a stroll down memory lane with a dance in the Dome. These earlier eras will be contrasted with contemporary images of jogging, dog walking and skateboarding.
