The Baltic Gallery
Within the Baltic gallery, there was one exhibition which really stood out to me. And that was the works of artist 'Jenny Holzer' and her LED series. With this one in particular, the words flowed up the room slowly, and occastionally blurred out of focus, I found it very calming.
However, underneath this pleasing light show, the text that was shown was actually quite gruesome, as it was the information of iraq war victims, who were interrogated and killed. dates of their death etc, was shown and made everyone in the gallery room silent.
