This is not the recommended approach. Use data-binding instead.

make arrayFeed of type ObservableCollection<Uri>, assign it to ItemsSource of mainPivot and use ItemTemplate to customize your item UI.

Example:

Code:

ObservableCollection<Uri> arrayFeed = new ObservableCollection<Uri>();
// populate arrayField
mainPivot.ItemsSource = arrayFeed;

XAML:

<Pivot Name="mainPivot">
    <Pivot.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <Image Source="{Binding}" />
        </DataTemplate>
    </Pivot.ItemTemplate>
</Pivot>

–EDIT–

For your comment,

Generally, it is a good idea to use ObservableCollection while data-binding in Silverlight/WPF. ObservableCollection implements INotifyCollectionChanged interface. It is helpful for notifying UI elements whenever items are added to/removed from ObservableCollection. That way UI can update itself.
