In a large glass cube, various processes that take place under the influence of light are visible. These processes, essential for life on Earth, range from cosmic to microscopic in scale. By enlarging, accelerating, or slowing down these processes, depicted through 3D animations, in the cube, the not always directly observable, permanently present power of light is made visible. In the cube, the 3D animations can also be seen in three dimensions. The dimensions of the cube are 2.30 x 2.30 x 2.30 m, and inside it consists of 1600 LED modules, each made up of 36 LEDs, totaling 57,600 LEDs.
The work was commissioned by the Centre for International Light Art, which houses a special collection including works by James Turrell and Olafur Eliasson, among others.
Realized by Yens & Yens, Joep Stolp, 3D animator Zak Lennard, Mila Baumann, and Madison van Gelder.
