The installation Penetration of Light II, presents a derivation of the project that the same group of students conceptualised in Soteska; the inspiration for the present placement stems from the very design of the park by the Roman Wall, where the participants highlighted the already existing characteristics of the space with light elements and thus turned the rather dark park into a kind of amphitheatre of light. Whereas in Soteska we deal predominantly with non-textile materials, here there is a greater emphasis on the textile itself; by processing old textiles and other objects, and with the added element of light, they expose a new perspective on familiar materials and objects, in this way transforming the given micro-atmosphere.
