Shadowing

A streetmap that plays with your shadow

Shadowing is an interactive installation embedded within streetlights throughout Bristol. It creates pockets of memory in the street; capturing the shadow of a pedestrian as they pass underneath the streetlight and then projecting it back to accompany the next person who passes by. Shadowing was first commissioned by Watershed as the winner of the 2014 Playable City Award and was installed in eight locations across Bristol during September and October 2014.
