The legend strikes again! another mind blowingly awesome piece from Stik, this time hes “up in lights”. Lets hope the future brings positive changes and a better world. Words from Stik A new installation by artist STIK has been unveiled in Central London. The digital artwork revolves around the historical Piccadilly Lights, the largest public screen in Europe and depicts a group of young people holding hands as a symbol of hope and solidarity both locally and internationally during the Coronavirus Lockdown.The special artwork was created by STIK for Young Westminster Foundation as the flagship campaign to raise core funding for their crucial work with young people in the local community. The artwork runs until the end of the month at Picadilly, Central London. Young Westminster Foundation Young Westminster Foundation (YWF) brings together youth organisations, young people, businesses, Westminster City Council, schools and the wider community to shape opportunities and create the best services for young people in Westminster, London.
