Exhibitions currently running: Catherine Yass: Lighthouse - The new film and series of photographic lightboxes by British artist Catherine Yass centre on one of the most remarkable maritime structures in Britain, the Royal Sovereign Lighthouse, set five miles out to sea off England's south coast. The lighthouse, standing alone, a perfectly square platform resting on a circular column, appears both monumental and precarious, making it a fascinating subject for Yass's interest in the psychological effects of architectural space. The filming and photography that form the basis of Lighthouse were taken from a range of different vantage points, including the use of a helicopter, a fishing boat and deep sea divers, allowing a number of dramatic and startling perspectives on the structure, which take the camera from high up above the tower, down the column and under the water. Until 11 February.
