World War One Cathedral Projection to commemorate the Armistice, produced by Playdead and commissioned by Kirkwall Townscape Heritage Initiative (KTHI). This was a public projection project to commemorate the centenary of the First World War armistice, in November 2018. The projection depicted life during the war period in Kirkwall and explored the history of World War One in Orkney and Kirkwall in a dynamic and inspirational way, revealing the role the islands played in the conflict. The artwork was projected onto St Magnus Cathedral, in the heart of Kirkwall. It is the most northerly cathedral in Britain, a fine example of Romanesque architecture which provided a spectacular canvas and backdrop for the projection.
