Info

– light boxes with marbles: each 90 x 90 x 9 cm
– marble diameter = 2.5 cm
– LED backlit
– filled single-sided with marbles: approx. 1,500 pieces | filled double-sided with marbles: approx. 3,000 pieces

The light boxes are filled with transparent and coloured glass marbles and backlit by specially developed
LED technology.
Each object contains transparent-iridescent glass marbles and also a different kind of coloured marble.
The iridescent surface of glass marbles, in combination with the special backlighting, causes the marbles
to shimmer and create a water-like impression.
By looking at the luminous objects, with only a slight change of viewpoint, the marble field seems to move
and change.
In the way they are lit, the commercial glass marbles appear very precious:
The objects also have the effect of oversized jewelry boxes.
