It consist of luminous cubes of various sizes that are scattered across the city.

Here is a more detailed description of the project:

—

The principle of reciprocity is based on 3 essential moments: giving, receiving and returning.

Putting into relationship the traditional (end of year) exchange of presents and the exchange between people and cities, the artist wanted to develop a lighting installation for uptown based on these 3 principles.

The journey starts from the “Porte de Namur” where light cubes fall out of the sky, the stroller will be guided through light trees to the ‘Place Stéphanie”, to a sculpture composed of a mountain of cubes for Brussels.

This light energy will be given and shared.
