A neon diptych.
In nature, shadow is considered a result of the obstruction of light, i.e an object between the source of light and the surface creates a darker projection.
A shadow can also be described as a dark figure cast upon a surface by a body intercepting the rays of light.
Shadow of Light challenges reality by creating fountain-like shadows without any obstructing object.
