View of Mating , 2015 ( active ). A man and a woman play a game of dice , each wearing an LED mask which obscures their face . The dice are made of amber , in each an insect is embedded . The players ’ respective masks light up in a rhythm that is not immediately discernable to onlookers , creating the impression of witnessing a conversation without being able to follow its significance . This sequence of illumination is in fact based on the mating behavior of fireflies . Live flies can be seen on ceiling , walls and floor .
