Multiple shadow house, Olafur Eliasson (2010)

A simple, purpose-built structure, the work Multiple shadow house consists of multicolored lamps in rows shining onto several large projection screens. When a body enters the space and begins to interact with this light installation beautiful and subtle overlaid visions of their shadow fan across the screens – as they move around forward and backward the image is thus altered and can be manipulated. In this way the project is a creative collaboration between the artist, viewer, space and technology. via

A great fire burns within me, but no one stops to warm themselves at it, and passers-by only see a wisp of smoke.
