Artwork
Jerram’s creation of sculptures, installations and live art, spreads internationally since 1997. In 2022, alone he had 104 exhibitions in 25 different countries, being visited by over 2 million people.[2]
in 2002, Jerram created Tide, an artwork consisting of acoustic sculptures demonstrating ‘live’ representation of how the gravitational impact the moon, affects our Earth.[3]
in 2004, Jerram began creating a series of transparent and colourless large glass sculptures of viruses and other pathogens, titled Glass Microbiology, recreating viruses such as smallpox, HIV/AIDS, Ebola, Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease and Swine influenza.[4]
In 2012, he presented Aeolus, an acoustic wind pavilion at Canary Wharf, Tower Hamlets (borough), London. named after the Aeolian harp, it is designed to create music without the need of human or electrical power.[5]
In 2013, he created Maya, a sculpture of a girl created using 5,000+ photographs of his daughter, installed at platform three of Temple Meads railway station, which seems fragmented until you are far enough away for the image to be unpixellated.[6]
In 2015, he created Withdrawn, which placed a fleet of stranded fishing boats strategically located around Leigh Woods National Nature Reserve. the artwork was supported by the National Trust and the Forestry Commission.[7]
The artwork Museum of the Moon is one of his most successful projects and has been exhibited more than 300 times in 30 countries across the world.[8]
