Luminarium

Just blipping as we’re at my friends and have been chatting- and my phones about to die! I will add more tomorrow !
Which I did and it’s disappeared!
Again…

We really enjoyed our trip to Compton Verney to visit Luminarium- Timisien.

Timisien takes its name from the Romanian city of Timișoara, whose European Capital of Culture celebration was to have been the première presenter until the pandemic arrived. Comprised of 20 domes in total, 18 of the 20 domes form the central labyrinth that is the most disorientating part of the luminarium. Colour is brought into these domes via ‘skylights’, unobtrusive finials surmounting each of Timisien’s 21 domes. The finials control colour and intensity in each dome where they shine below and encourage the visitor to look up.


We also loved the hand pull ferry ( all had a turn) and the art exhibitions , particularly the Quentin Blake exhibition. Definitely worth seeing
