About Gaia
Measuring seven metres in diameter, Gaia features 120dpi detailed NASA imagery of the Earth’s surface*. The artwork provides the opportunity to see our planet on this scale, floating in three-dimensions. The artwork is by Luke Jerram with a specially made surround sound composition by BAFTA award winning composer Dan Jones.
As part of our programming for this event we will be exploring climate change and the Church of England’s intention to be Net Carbon Zero by 2030. The Church of England has five marks of mission with the fifth being “To strive to safeguard the integrity of creation and sustain and renew the life of the earth.”
