☀️"Light is for everyone - it determines what ☀️"Light is for everyone - it determines what we do and how we do it. " #olafureliasson 👋Introducing my new light friend, the "Little Sun", who will be everywhere with me this summer. ☀️ Little Sun puts the power of the sun in the palm of your hand. ❓Do you want to know more? Google "The Little Sun" , have a look at the brief description here or directly here: @littlesunenergy 👉🏻What is it? A small, portable, solar lamp that has changed millions of lives through the power of the sun. It is charged in the sun for 5 hours and provide 4hours of bright light or up to 50 hours of soft light 🚀Their mission: To design and deliver affordable clean energy solutions and inspire people to take climate action. 🚩The non-profit organization founded in 2012 by the contemporary artist Olafur Eliasson @studioolafureliasson , and the engineer, artist and problem solver Frederik Ottesen. 💪🏻The impact: 1,261,441 lamps distributed worldwide | 762,223 lamps distributed to individuals without electricity | 58,540,388 extra study hours for school children after dark. (Dec 20') 💶All proceeds from their solar products, help to support their programs. As they mention on their website: "We harvest the power of the sun and make it available to rural communities in Sub-Saharan Africa so people can use clean energy to live happier, healthier, more productive, and more fulfilled lives". 🎁That was the perfect gift by @apdi_org for the IG action during the last International Day of Light.

💡LIGHTS - 🎥CAMERA - 🎬ACTION   🔸️T 💡LIGHTS - 🎥CAMERA - 🎬ACTION   🔸️This weekend, my brother and I re-watched two of the best movies in terms of lighting and cinematography. Blade Runner and Blade Runner 2049.  🔸️After our recent inspiring Clubhouse Room together with Martin Lutpon of @lightcollective in the Weekly Light Club with Nikos Nikolopoulos from @creativelighting.co , analyzing the cinematography of classic films and the ongoing #SLLourLight initiative, this Sunday was finally a good moment to get creative, get inspired and contribute to the challenge.  💫I tried to re-create one of my most favorite scenes from Blade Runner 2049 and of course experiment with 👉🏻LIGHT + WATER and CAUSTICS👈🏻 (wait until the end to see the scene 🤗) 😁Do try it at home ;-) and remember to have fun!!! What is this initiative? #SLLOurLight is a social media initiative designed to provide an opportunity to celebrate light and lighting at home. The theme for the first edition is film and the SLL is inviting people to recreate iconic scenes from their favourite on screen moments, using what they have around the house.  If you want to join, make sure you check the guidelines on their page and tag @sll100 and include #SLLOurLight and #LightDay2021 when posting. #lightingdesign #lightingdesigners #bladerunner #bladerunner2049 #cinematography #playingwithlights #drawingwithlight #inspirationiseverywhere #experimentation #passionforlight #light #movies

•REST• Pick your battles.  💫"Choose your •REST• Pick your battles.  💫"Choose your battles wisely. After all, life isn't measured by how many times you stood up to fight. It's not winning battles that makes you happy, but it's how many times you turned away and chose to look into a better direction. Life is too short to spend it on warring. Fight only the most, most, most important ones, let the rest go." (C. JoyBell C.) 🔺️There are those days that you feel unbeatable and unstoppable  🔺️There are those days that you feel extremely inspired and motivated  and  🔻There are also those days that you need to stop, understand what went wrong, reflect, rest and start again. 🙏🏻As long as you are healthy, you can do ANYTHING... just at the right time 😉 Put a heart below if you practice on picking your battles wisely 👇🏻 🧡 🔸️🔸️🔸️🔸️🔸️🔸️ A personal journey: A 3m 360° LED rope, the marble and I, experimenting, imagining, feeling, reflecting.

•WINGS• 💫Take Risks. Try new things. Build •WINGS• 💫Take Risks. Try new things. Build your doors . Explore the possibilities. Dare to fail.  ❌Nobody is able to clip your wings unless you stand in your own way… 💪Honesty, you have nothing to lose and so much to gain!!! 💁🏻‍♀️Today my good friend Kyriaki said something that ;stuck with me. "There is no manual when you start a business". Exactly!!! 💯 You will make mistakes, you will learn, you will fail, you will get better, and you will also be independent, you will grow, you will smile, you will celebrate your wins and feel fulfilled. 💫“Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly”. (John F Kenned) 💫“Until you spread your wings, you will have no idea how far you can fly”. (Napoleon Bonaparte) 🔸️🔸️🔸️🔸️🔸️🔸️ A personal journey: A 3m 360° LED rope, the marble and I, experimenting, imagining, feeling, reflecting.
