Built from a hard structure and covered in soft stretching fabric, several individual “sparks” are clustered together to create new space inside.
Light glows from inside each piece, which is filtered through the soft fabric, giving it a smooth character. The colours of light are always changing and they build atmosphere and relationships as they shift in tone. Shadows from the visitors dance in the light as their bodies are silhouetted against the glowing design.
