A city is a living organism. When something stops to work, the neural network of the streets and languages provides the information to the entire nervous system directly. Architectural lighting installation LIGHTMARE refers in its shape to the urban symbols of medical assistance (emergency services, pharmacies), but it is softened by the sensual, pastel coloristic. It becomes the equivalent of the city needs and failures on the one hand, and it reminds the phantasmatic aspect of its desires and longings on the other.

The dreamy, isosceles cross lighting in pink may be visible only from one place in the city. With the slightest change of perspective it becomes a set of abstract light signals.
