David Hockney immersive exhibition at The Lightroom

Opening on 17 June at the Lightroom in King’s Cross, David Hockney: Bigger & Closer offers a fully immersive journey through 60 years of Hockney’s career. Using large-scale projections, visitors can experience his sketchbooks, drawings, paintings, and iPad artworks projected across the exhibition walls, creating a truly enveloping environment.

 

Seating throughout the space invites visitors to sit, sprawl, or recline, allowing them to absorb Hockney’s artistry at their own pace. The projection setup ensures every angle of the exhibition provides a dynamic visual experience, blending traditional and digital mediums seamlessly.

 

The exhibition is divided into six themed chapters, each narrated by Hockney himself. His commentary reveals insights into his creative process, covering early works from Los Angeles, Yorkshire landscapes, and contemporary Normandy pieces. Visitors witness Hockney experimenting with perspective, photography as a form of drawing, Polaroid collages, and vibrant iPad depictions of seasonal change.

 

A musical score by Nico Muhly accompanies the visuals, heightening the immersive quality. The combination of narration, music, and projection allows visitors to experience Hockney’s vision in a multi-sensory, contemplative setting.
