Field of Light
Field of Light installation by Bruce Munroe
We are thrilled to be welcoming the Global phenomenon ‘The Field of Light’ - an art installation by the internationally acclaimed artist Bruce Munro, now resident in Salcombe this winter.
It truly is a must see event which is running daily right through to 10th January 2025.
20,000 light stems are placed across 3 fields opposite Salcombe creating the most beautiful display from dusk until 10pm each day and visible from many of the towns favourite spots including our very own Whinfield Gallery!
The big switch on happened on 5th October as part of a launch event. Fore street was closed and lined with local food and drink stalls in celebration, with the public able to view the spectacle along the whole of the Harbour front. Thank you to all those who made the event and celebrated with us all.
Artist Bruce Munro, who created the vision, grew up in Salcombe and has a huge affiliation with the area and in particular the RNLI. The installation has been donated to the local community to raise funds for the Lifeboats and volunteer crews.
