Workshops with United Visual Artists have been booked out.

A multi-disciplinary arts company combining art direction, production and software engineering, UVA was founded by partners Chris Bird, Matt Clark and Ash Nehru in 2003. They create responsive, immersive and sculptural light-based environments. Their first project was the creation of the ground-breaking visual show for Massive Attack’s ‘100th Window’ world tour. Since then they have gone on to work with bands including Basement Jaxx, U.N.K.L.E. and U2. In 2004 they created the spherical fiber-optic sculpture for Kylie Minogue’s ‘I Believe In You’ video. In 2004 UVA created a curved LED installation for the Kabaret’s Prophecy nightclub in Soho, which won Wallpaper Magazine’s Best Designed Nightclub award in 2005.

Their current major project is the design and installation of architectural lighting for the Santral Contemporary Art Space in Istanbul, Turkey. UVA is represented at AGIdeas 2008 by Creative Director Matt Clark and Interaction Designer Joel Gethin Lewis. Joel Gethin Lewis and Matt Clark are bought to AGIdeas in association with the British Council
