In Other People's Skins at Southwark Cathedral

You enter a space. There is a table with chairs around it. A meal is in progress and as you approach the table you can see twelve mysterious diners - virtual diners, projected images which play upon the surface of the table.

You are invited to take a place at the table, to join in or simply observe.

Interactive, hands on artwork by Terry Flaxton which looks at the role of the meal table as a universal and unifying place of communication.

A touring exhibition of a digital installation as part of an Arts Council funded tour of 7 Cathedrals and Abbeys.

"We are delighted to be able to have this installation within Southwark Cathedral," says the Very Revd Colin Slee.

"It provides an opportunity for people to think about the importance of sharing a meal together and the differences and similarities between cultures. I would urge everyone who is in the area to come and investigate it."
