Mirrie Light Winter Illuminations Shetland Winter 2009-10 This project, conceived by artists Nayan Kulkarni and Roxane Permar, was commissioned by Shetland Arts over the winter of 2009-10. It offered an opportunity for people to help create dynamic light works for ten temporary illuminations in Voe, Haroldswick, Yell, North Roe, Tingwall, Reawick, Bressay, Nesbister, Dunrossness and Snarravoe, Unst. Later all of these works will become part of the exterior illuminations for Mareel, Shetland's new music, cinema and education venue. Much more information about the project is available on the Mirrie Dancers website. Austin Taylor Photography was appointed Illuminations Photographer for the project and this page is the gallery index for all the individual sites, which will show a selection of each artwork as they become available 'Mirrie Dancers' is the Shetland term for the Northern Lights or Aurora Borealis.
