Competition
Art Work to the renovation from the Hospial
6 invited artists

Concept
The installation has two parts:
the light sculpture at the facade and at the entrance are communicating
with each other,
with the environment and
with the visitor.

The light sculptures behave as follows:
– in „rest” mode there is like a soft movement at the rythm of a quiet normal breathing
– in „active” mode the movement is following the steps of the visitors

The visitor becomes a part of the artwork:
he provokes the fast movement of the light sculpture, which thereafter returns to its „rest” mode.
