I found Sabrina's presentation on the artist Christian Boltanski interesting. She showed us slides of his installations that deal a lot with the use of light. I learned of Boltanski's history with the Holocost and the profound effect it had on his work. His installations and sculptures deal with his relationships with life and death.
The installation titled "The Children of Dijon" is one that uses light in an interesting and different way. The light gives a soft glow and a calm almost somber ambiance. It also seems that this piece speaks of death and mortality.
