bodies were, like the living nature, subjected to
the process of evolution: some elements survived,
while some others didn't. Thus they represent a
living organism that constantly evolves, and with
that keeps or does away with certain elements
according to their function, adaptability and
transparency. The main building block of these
light bodies is throwaway plastics: the material
that stems from dead remains of those animal
species that were transformed into oil.
Light
objects made of waste material have gained a life
of their own in the years of exhibiting them. They
change their shapes and functions through time,
recycle themselves and enter cycles of re-usage,
while some become kinetic. Each step of the

festival, but evolution is, of course, a
neverending process. To be continued ... /Natan
