Undershed - an immersive gallery for Watershed

We are excited to introduce our space on the ground floor of Watershed which showcases new and globally award-winning immersive art.

Undershed is a new gallery, one of only a few places in the UK dedicated to the best immersive and interactive artwork from all over the world.

What's On

An overhead projector casts a shadow of a cartoonish, concerned face with raised eyebrows on a wall, creating a humorous and whimsical tone.

Four artists from our incredible Pervasive Media Studio community share works in progress exploring the future of technologies in our lives. Make faces with emotion-sensing software, build new worlds, meet future folk heroes - imagine what digital futures could look like.
