Artist Jenny Steele to unveil a bold new site-specific installation on Liverpool’s Georges Dock Plaza that will highlight Liverpool’s historically important transatlantic links to North America.
About
The Maiden Voyage is a new site-specific installation and dance work that has developed out of a research-led project by contemporary visual artist Jenny Steele. The Maiden Voyage takes inspiration from to the spread of ‘Art Deco’ modernist architecture across the transatlantic from the United Kingdom to New York during the 1930s, both through the transportation of people and the design and promotional advertising of 1930s transatlantic ocean liners themselves and presented at Georges Dock Plaza, by the Grade II-listed Georges Dock - Ventilation Station and Combined Control Centre for the Mersey Tunnels.
