Artwork created in 1994

• This picture was inspired by the works of the contemporary sculptor Takis. He has used traffic lights in several of his sculptures (though, as far as I know, never distorted traffic lights). An impressive sculpture of his, featuring spiralling shafts and lights is displayed in the business district of La Défense, near Paris. Sitting on the stairs at the foot of the sculpture, you have a magnificent quasi-aerial view of the Champs-Elysées, from La Défense down to the Arc de Triomphe. By the way, a traffic light near my home was hit by car and looked more or less like the ones in the picture. It was still working when they replaced it.
• This image was originally created in 1994 and slighly improved in 1997.
