“We are inside a sculpture. A volume with translucent walls and whose ceiling is covered with LED lighting that is itself filtered by three different colours, the primary colours, blue, yellow and red. And this space is filled with an artificial fog, and as the fog crosses the filtered coloured light, it somehow materializes this light and gives it a colour and a materiality. Ultimately, we do not look at the colour, the colour is nearly within us, as an experience.” Ann Veronica Jensen
