"To animate the otherwise dull and stationary components of everyday life and make them extraordinary is what I have been chasing for the last year or so. I use lights, specifically, not in their usual functional way, but as physical components, showing off their properties by making them kiss and touch, move and swing or rub themselves over other materials. With the addition of motors and some lackluster handyman-like physics the fragility and precarious repetition of the bulbs movement, and that of the entire sculpture is shown off, enticing the point of collapse, which never quite arrives."
