Installation in seven wall space (variable dimensions)
There is one drawing (graphite, charcoal, email on paper, 200 × 140 cm) on each wall and a BW photography in frame (30 × 22 cm)
I spend an intensive time in discussion with 7 individuals.
Those people were very closed to me and they had an significant role in my life: My father Alfréd Fischer, uncle Juraj Martvoň, nephew Adam Fischer and philosophers – writers Milan Šimečka, Dominik Tatarka, Hermann Hesse and Albert Schweitzer.
Those people passed away, went to Infinity.
Were returned to Nature.
Now, because they were good people, they radiate the Energy – the Light. The Light of 7 Beneficial Spirits (7 symbols are at the same time the signs of days of the week)
First, I draw 7 portraits in my studio, after I installed them in circle inside the wood in Pennsylvania and continue to work: one day – one portrait.
To each of them I assigned one sign corresponded with the day of week during the portrait was integrated into the Nature.

After 1 minute 15 sec. of light in the room it is going fluently into the dark: from behind each drawing is – also fluently – coming light = signs, symbols which are shining in complete darkness 45 sec.
The cycle recurs frequently.
