Power Plant is a nocturnal world of sound and light - a sensory trail through public gardens. Deep in the park, old gramophones conjure up the sound of mirror balls whilst flowery dresses whisper the Latin names of plants. Clicking insects cast vast moving shadows and shimmering flowerbeds dance to their own tune. Haunting whistles rise and fall as fluorescing arabesques appear in the trees. An eerie requiem of spinning gongs sound as vast balloons breathe unearthly sighs. This collection of intriguing installation artworks featuring artists including; Mark Anderson, Anne Bean, Jony Easterby, Kirsten Reynolds and Ulf Mark Pedersen has been inspired by the natural environment.

One of the hits of last year’s Edinburgh festival, the night time sound and light experience Power Plant will appear in Austrailia and Hong Kong in 2011

'A huge success... Power Plant's ingeniously playful array of electronic stunts, kinetic sculptures and sound effects and musical sound effects sprang a series of delightful surprises' THE SUNDAY TIMES

'Power Plant makes you look more closely. Its flashes of neon, shadowy projections and sudden bursts of firefly radiance make you peer all the more intently at what is already there. Wandering around, you see where man has made his mark. But you are also aware of the majestic triumph of nature over us. It is as if the plants are simply holding there breath and waiting for us to leave ****' THE GUARDIAN - August 2009

'Hijacking your intellect as well as your senses Power Plant is the stuff of your most bizarre, dreamy dreams ****' THE METRO - August 2009
