Since opening in 2022, immersive art gallery Frameless has delighted Londoners and tourists alike, giving visitors the opportunity to step inside works by iconic artists like Dali, Bosch, and Klimt. It's the largest permanent immersive art experience anywhere in the UK and in its fifth gallery it hosts guest exhibitions by artists from all over the world. If you've never had the chance to see the Northern Lights but it's something you've always dreamed of, you'll now get the opportunity thanks to Frameless and Gothenburg-based artist Lela Amparo. 

Amparo's exhibition 'Illuminating the Arctic Night' will be literally lighting up the gallery. Combining imagery of the Northern Lights and winter in Scandinavia with a soundscape recorded in a remote Norwegian village, exhibition-goers can immerse themselves in a Northern European landscape, complete with the stunning effects of the Aurora Borealis. The show is on between 25th November and 31stJanuary, with entry to the temporary exhibition included in your ticket price.

After you see the temporary and permanent exhibitions, remember to check out the gallery's gift shop and café-bar. You'll find a new festive menu of seasonal treats as well as gifts inspired by the show. Find out more and book your tickets on the Frameless website.
