The sculptural exhibition "Leave the Light On" is transforming the gallery space into a manifestation of life itself, which, as records of past events and future feelings, allows the viewer in a crucial moment to become an interactive component of the setting. It is reminding us of how valuable and fragile life is and at the same time emphasizes the unimportance of material needs. Nothing is ever lost as long as we leave the light on!
