This new soundtrack allows viewers the opportunity to reflect on the current conflict in Ukraine and the history and notion of war. Featuring the sounds of seas, deserts and clips from NASA missions to Mars, it also incorporates the sounds of distant bombing and people marching, as if to war. Accompanying the Mars: War & Peace sculpture is a specially created sound composition by BAFTA and Ivor Novello award winning composer Dan Jones. Mars was named by the ancient Romans for their god of war because its reddish colour was reminiscent of blood.

We are transported to this desert wasteland, to imagine what it’s like to step foot on this incredible planet and in comparison, really value our life on Earth. Every valley, crater, volcano, and mountain are laid bare for us to inspect. The artwork allows us to view Mars from the air, as though we are a satellite mapping and studying the surface in perfect detail. At an approximate scale of 1:1 million, each centimetre of the internally lit spherical sculpture represents 10 kilometres of the surface of Mars. Measuring seven metres in diameter, the artwork features 120dpi detailed NASA imagery of the Martian surface. This summer will be the first time that Mars: War & Peace has been installed in a Church setting and a new soundscape has been created especially for the festival. Mars: War & Peace follows the hugely successful appearance of Luke Jerram’s previous works at the Kensington and Chelsea Festival, each attracted up to 3,000 visitors per day. One of the most exciting projects to appear at the Kensington & Chelsea Festival in 2023 is inarguably Mars: War & Peace, the touring artwork by UK artist Luke Jerram… catch it whilst you can! Mars: War & Peace by Luke Jerram is unveiled at St John the Baptist Church as part of the Kensington & Chelsea Festival, London.
