Helios
Helios
Helios is a new touring artwork by UK artist Luke Jerram. Measuring seven metres in diameter, the artwork features 72dpi detailed imagery* of the Sun’s surface. At an approximate scale of 1:200 million, each centimetre of the internally lit spherical sculpture represents 2000km of the Sun’s surface.
The installation is a fusion of solar imagery, sunlight and a specially created surround sound composition by Duncan Speakman and Sarah Anderson. Booking online in advance is recommended but not essential, but during busy times those looking to pay on the door may have to wait and some sessions will inevitably sell out in advance.

Monday mornings may open up closer to the time Tuesdays - Saturdays: 10am - 5pm (last entry 4.30pm) Sundays: 12.30-3pm (last entry 2pm) Please note, on some days, the soundtrack might be turned off at 4pm due to choir rehearsals (2pm on Sundays) Prices Adults £5 U16s £3 U5s free Pilates sessions under Helios available on certain dates as well as a special preview evening on Tuesday 28 July which includes a complimentary drink on arrival.
