Waterlicht, Daan Roosegaarde Granary Square at King’s Cross was transformed into an ethereal underwater world. Blue light was projected onto a vaporised water screen under which the public moved. Inspired by our changing relationship to water and the risks faced from global warming and rising sea levels, viewers were immersed in a virtual flood.
