As part of Light Up Wakefield 2025, WX welcomes Amelia Kosminsky's light installation Wandering. 

Wandering is a brand-new piece by Amelia Kosminsky, using her unique dreamscape technique. Moving imperceptibly, images float to the surface, only to fade away, bringing new vistas to light looking across time and space. 

Drawing from local archives and photographs, Wandering slowly reveals the character of Wakefield and its citizens over time. It reflects on Wakefield's relationship to nature as the past heavy industry of coal mines and canals gives way to a gentler more rural future.
