72 x 4.8 x 2.4 metres

A total of 280 LED tube lights hang from ceiling of a cavern above a platform area of a metro station. The stretched three-dimensional structure is made of equal tube lights arranged at three different angles in long x,y,z grid, connected by thin stainless-steel wires. The ceiling high above the work is painted pitch-black, so the composition formed by the bright tube lights seems to levitate under dark void. The travelers, looking at the work while walking underneath or seated in a passing train, experience it as a stream of constantly changing kinetic patterns.

This commission work is based on a proposal made for Länsimetro Ltd in 2012 on request of art consultant Jaakko Niemelä. It was realized in close collaboration with ALA Architects Ltd, responsible for architectural design of the station.
