A mountain of rainbow-coloured foam is coming to Liverpool ONE on Saturday 31 August as part of The Last Day of Summer.
Join us at 2pm to watch ‘Island of Foam’ take over the Sugar House Steps – then once invited, get messy and explore the artwork.✨
This event forms part of ‘The Last Days of Summer’ festival which will bring a whole host of free, family fun to Liverpool’s waterfront. Find out more: https://bit.ly/3AFoklD
Island of Foam – an ambitious, temporary shape-shifting artwork will take over Liverpool ONE’s Sugar House Steps (near John Lewis) on the afternoon of Saturday 31 August. It has been commissioned by Culture Liverpool in partnership with Global Streets.
The brainchild of German artist Stephanie Lüning, the brightly coloured foam will slowly take over an area of the steps starting at 2pm, growing and constantly taking shape, ultimately making the steps disappear.
When it’s complete, it’s time to get messy as onlookers are invited to explore the artwork and create their very own foam party on the ground level.
And as the installation is entirely biodegradable, it will disappear without a trace within hours.
To find out more, head to the Culture Liverpool website, where there will be more information about the artwork, as well as advice for those planning on getting foamy.
The unique exhibit forms part of ‘The Last Day of Summer’ festival which offers a whole host of free, family fun including water sport sessions, street performances, crafting, music, silent adventure tours and even access to swan pedalos. To find out more and to book on to some of the sessions, head to the official event website. The festival has been organised by Liverpool BID Company, Royal Albert Dock Liverpool, Peel Waters and Culture Liverpool.
