figure c. is a light and sound sculpture, composed of several elements derived from the street lighting industry, thus raising the question of the role of light in public spaces. Constructed from the carcasses of streetlights, the geometric patterns of figure c. reinforce its inherent contradiction between source of light and light sculpture. Meanwhile, the projected light adds an abstract quality to the work.

All of its elements were dismantled, reassembled and welded into a new and enigmatic form, in the idea of an assembly kit. The sculpture is a manifestation of minimalist and chaotic research in which void is put into order. As a concretization of the preservation of a functional object, figure c. also possesses an accompanying sound composition, which traces the lines of its own disappearance. Light and heavy, whole and incomplete, solemn and ironic, the final rendering of the sculpture embodies contradiction: everything and anything.
