The Infinity Room installation, created by recycling not-for-profit Every Can Counts, aims to teach all ages about the importance of recycling drink cans, as well as illustrating the infinite recyclability of aluminium.
The focal point for the exhibit is a giant drink can and, once inside, you will find yourself in a mirrored room that creates an illusion of being surrounded by an infinite number of suspended aluminium cans. At the same time, a narrator will take you on an educational journey through aluminium can recycling and its environmental benefits.
The exhibit also marks the 20th anniversary of Recycle Week. Recycle Week is an annual celebration of recycling which aims to galvanise the public across the UK to recycle more of the right things, more often.
Made up of 1,500 recycled cans and 25 square metres of mirrors, the exhibit also makes for a visual spectacle. You can share your experience of the Infinity Room on social media with #EveryCanCounts.
The Infinity Room installation is free with general admission to W5.
This exhibit can be found in W5's In Our Nature zone on Level 4.
