The Dance of Death creates a point of confrontation between life and death. The bulbs mark the date the artist’s body came into being. Dance Macabre by Camille Saints Saens plays in the background. The lit-up numbers flicker unseen, to celebrate this date and their passing time. The flickering light which appears steady, is not visible to the human eye, due to its high ‘flicker fusion rate’ thereby making intermittent light appear constant. As time passes, the bulbs die, and the dance begins to fade away and we are left in darkness.
