Powder coated mesh, steel and rope

No. 1104 Catching Colour is a site-specific outdoor installation created by Rana Begum for Botanic Square. This dramatic work, featuring clouds of suspended coloured mesh, is simultaneously light and monumental, appearing to float above the central pathway. Soft layers create a mesmerising interplay of light and form, which are echoed by their shadows on the ground below. Inspired by the reflections of light on water close by, Begum’s work is a fitting response to the natural environment of London City Island and the River Lea that winds around it.

Curated by The Line, No. 1104 Catching Colour is a commission by EcoWorld Ballymore.
