More about the projection, Metamorphosis, 2023:

Liverpool Cathedral has been illuminated as a 40-metre-tall light artwork created by the artist Nicola Anthony. Titled Metamorphosis, the monumental light projection saw the cathedral’s facade become a canvas, as a testament to the city’s vibrant spirit and complex history, and a comment on the metamorphosis that we as individuals, places and cultures have to undergo during our lifetimes.

The award-winning international sculptor intertwined typographic structures and technological light projections with tradition, as the Cathedral looks to it’s 100 year anniversary. The artwork’s text is a quote found in Kafka’s novel of the same name. Anthony’s work delves into the complexities of Liverpool’s character, legacy, and evolution. As the world faces unprecedented change, the artwork seeks inspiration from the city’s intricate layers, revealing the vulnerability and strength inherent in its transformation.

“In Kafka's novel, The Metamorphosis, a man turns into a beetle as a surreal metaphor for the parts of ourselves that we don't like, or cannot fathom. As Liverpool is a city that has reinvented itself many times and gone through much transformation, as well as taken bold steps to be conscious of it's history of slave trade, this seemed appropriate. I wanted something very human and vulnerable, which in itself has strength.
