The unique pieces can be hung or placed on the wall - so you can create a variety of different combinations and ensembles. The light surfaces cast seamlessly into the surfaces, which are manually created using a wide range of techniques. Unlit, they also form an impressive sculpture.

Indirect light, backlight and reflections change the sculpture itself - shadowy contours, clear edges of light and surfaces can be combined in innumerable variations. Unlit, the light surfaces cast seamlessly into the manually processed surface using various techniques to form an archaic sculpture.

These works were inspired by the 'early light' - the flat backlight with its shadowy crack-like backlighting and the translucency of the objects in the foreground. In the course of the day, weak, shadowy light slits become hard contours; light, back light, and shadows change form, shape, and mood. Each sculpture is handmade, signed, and numbered. The surfaces are also manually processed and thus have slightly different structures, characteristics, and color nuances, even within editions. The lights - LEDs of different types - can be exchanged for all sculptures. The operating time of the LEDs is up to 50,000 hours (compared to a light bulb: 1,000 hours).

The LEDs are dimmable per cross, and have 1 common transformer.
