Liquid Light by celebrated artist collective Marshmallow Laser Feast and Johnnie Walker is a groundbreaking and immersive installation that delves into the innovation and craftsmanship of glassmaking.

This groundbreaking installation represents the pinnacle of extensive research and development, exploring the intricate balance between strength and fragility in the medium. The installation’s centrepiece features an array of glass-blown droplets suspended in mid-air, collectively symbolising the evolution of form over time. As a brand rooted in progress, Johnnie Walker has always strived to break boundaries. The brand is unveiling a first-of-its kind, boundary-breaking innovation during the Festival, which is brought to life by the Landmark Project. An experiential artist collective, Marshmallow Laser Feast’s work looks to reinterpret the idea of human perception and experience. Employing a wealth of creative disciplines and underpinned by research, they invite participants to navigate with a sensory perception beyond the everyday. Fusing architectural tools, contemporary imaging techniques and performance with tactile forms, they sculpt spaces that lay dormant until animated by playful investigation. Visitors will be enveloped in a mesmerising interplay of light and shadow as a moving light passes through the glass forms, projecting elegant undulations onto surrounding white walls. This dynamic display, accompanied by a musical score, brings together the elemental forces of gravity, liquid glass, and human breath, offering a commentary on the interplay between material and design. ‘Liquid Light’ not only showcases craftsmanship but also underscores Johnnie Walker's dedication to design innovation.
