"From Ziggy Stardust to the Thin White Duke-the shifting faces of David Bowie are coming into focus at an immersive experience landing in London. Titled " ," the multimedia spectacle at You're Not Alone Lightroom stitches together footage of some of Bowie's most iconic performances over his storied career, projecting it on the venue's 36-foot walls. Over an hour, viewers will get to glimpse the superstar's multitude of guises and personas, alongside rare interviews and other never-before-seen material."
""Rather than undermining his mystique, we designed a show to celebrate Bowie as a champion of human creativity-focusing on the message he expressed time and again: that art, in all its forms, is our best hope for understanding what it means to be alive.""
"Bowie's enigma, then, is sustained across the experience's thematic sections, which explore his theatricality, spirituality, songcraft, and creativity. Performance footage and photography are interspersed with Bowie's drawings, lyrics, and personal notes. Bizarre moments surface, such as the musician's baffling 1975 interview with Russell Harty; as do immersive reconstructions, namely of Bowie's Diamond Dogs stage set."
