Northern Lights

The boundaries of the walls, doorways and stairs are marked according to law with luminescent paint in the public shelter (in order to address the adaptive eyes). In a condition of a power failure or the transition between a day-stay and an overnight, the fluorescent lights switched off and the markings illuminates themselves as they emit the light loaded in them. The functional marking of the space becomes an abstract visual image that floats in the dark, a modern compositions in stick-light green, similar in color to night vision equipment. As the light in it ends, it fades away, decays in to the darkness like a temporary photography. It is the last burning of the space to the mind, just a moment before total darkness underground.
