Making Midsummer Solar Clocks

Chisenhale Gallery and Victoria Park are collaborating with The Royal Observatory to run two day-long workshops over the Summer Solstice weekend led by Public Astronomer Marek Kukula. Explore the vital link between sunlight and time by spending Midsummer learning how to make clocks from the shadows of ordinary objects and how the movements in the solar system affect shifts on Earth.

Making Midsummer Solar Clocks is one of a series of events by artist Cathy Haynes for her new research project Stereochron Island, commissioned by Chisenhale Gallery.
