Take a look: Luminarium is wild (photo gallery)

Northwood Park in Cowes is playing host over the next four days to the Architects of Air’s Luminarium – a giant inflatable symphony of light and colour.

The News OnTheWight team had a first look this morning (Thursday) and were wowed by the experience.

What to expect
After removing your shoes and leaving your bags at the door, the journey begins in the airlocked inflatable, where you’re given instructions of what you can and can’t do when inside.

You’re then given around 30 minutes to move from dome to dome, each one a different colour and shape. Although you might not think it looking at the images below, no lighting is used, there are simply strips in the coloured fabric of each dome that let the light in from the sky outside.

Check out the photos below for an idea of what to expect. It’s quite a sensory overload.
