Drift 08 : Overview
ILLUMINATE PRODUCTIONS a not-for-profit organisation, presents contemporary artwork in unusual, yet accessible environments.
This is done by opening 'lost' buildings and identifying areas of geographical or historical importance, including interesting public outdoor spaces.
Illuminate challenges established and emerging artists to work in ground-breaking contexts, so their work can be bought to community and international audiences.
The exhibition has now finished.
DRIFT 08 was a series of strategically placed artworks in and alongside the River Thames in the heart of central London. It transformed and enriched a vast section of the river from Blackfriars Bridge to Tower Bridge. The prime public location made the artwork accessible to all sections of the community and the millions of visitors to the area.
