The quintessential quality of light is transparency, both as a vehicle of seeing and technology of expression. This attribute creates an exceptional dimension for light as an instrument of expression. Usually, light is not observed.
The works in the pavilion are sketches and one suggestion for changing the light-exclusive gaze into a light-including one. The objects' relation to changing light is essential in the works, not the individual objects.
Even though objects are perceived almost unchanged irrespective of prevailing light, changes in lighting also change perception and add diverse layers of information to it. The use of artificial light creates layers of significance. (In this sense lighting design is a primitive version of augmented reality.) The relation between transparency and rendering something opaque is pivotal for expressing with light. The art of light is the ability to use transparency as a tool of expression in a way that the amount of transparency is the variable, one could claim.
Light locates the attention completely outside of itself. For light to function as a meaningful content of art, it needs to be made a third factor in the relation of subject and object: subject – light – object.
