District Fray: “Craig Walsh is a phenomenal innovator in terms of his ability to create digital mapping,” says Joi Brown, Strathmore’s artistic director. “The spaces that will be in the trees are visual portraits, so it’s a visual treat that I think people will really appreciate. It’s a large-scale visual instantiation, so it’s very eye-catching.”

I am personally in awe of the art of projection mapping and using any kind of video or projection design on stage. I can recall many times sitting in the theatre being blown away by how projections artists are able to make beams of light into magical things and moments on stage. Projections can add incredible whimsy and spectacle to a show, and can really heighten the circumstances at any given moment. Since it is a relatively new type of design in the theatre world, it always so exciting to see when new universities or theatre companies take the plunge to purchase the tools they need to start their projection journeys. While it is such a new form of design, it is one that is also growing rapidly; even having true artists in the field emerge and present their work in unconventional places outside of the theatre. Theatre is an artform that has the power to bring life to new art forms such as projection mapping, and that is one of the many reasons that theatre will not be disappearing anytime soon.
