In a small and dark room on the second floor of UCCA （尤伦斯当代艺术中心）, in the east of Beijing, children aged between 6 and 12 are trying out a special experiment using light. Each of them is holding a tiny torch, on top of which there is a small red spot that can be lightened. In front of them there is a huge screen hanging alongside the wall, upon which the children shine their torches. They soon locate the red spot from their torch and start interacting with the lights of others; almost as if they were fighting.

This idea was brought about by famous Chinese art designer Li Hui, who has been working with light for more than ten years. He says, before he produces any piece of artwork using light, he uses child-like methods of exploring light in order to search for design ideas.

"At the beginning, I knew little about light as an art medium, and had no idea what kind of art I could produce with it. So I tried many different approaches to see what kind of format would be the best one. "

Li Hui is now holding his own exhibition of light on the first floor. He states that his original idea of organizing this activity, especially for children, was to help them learn that light could be used to draw pictures on the wall; but his idea turned out to be much more interesting than he first thought.　

"I intended to let these children use the red spot to make pictures on the wall together. I hoped that they could learn what cooperation means in the production of art. But later, when I saw them playing with the light, I found out that what they are really interested in is the vividness of the light. So I gave up my previous idea and let them have fun."

Aside from shooting the red spot on the wall, Li Hui has another experiment which aimed at making light more appealing. He uses smoke and steam to alter light and a mirror to reflect it. Each child uses their unlimited imagination to build their own work. Not only are these children enjoying the experiments, but those accompanying them also find it to be great fun. Angisel Kiermaier, from Venezuela, says she never expected light to be so magical.

"This is fun. When I first saw the exhibition downstairs I wasn't too excited, but when I realized there was smoke, it made me pay attention to how people's movement changed the pictures that were being created. It's really cool, you have three children standing there and they let out the smoke, and the shapes made were all different."

Li Hui personally thinks that light is something special, holding the idea that light can be regarded as the conductor of life.

"For example, in many articles related to religion, they all begin with the story of light. Personally, I feel that light is incredibly special. It can be seen, but not touched, and sometimes it can be confusing - a feeling which I actually like. And that's exactly why I chose light as the material for my art work."

His exhibition is currently only displaying one piece of art, a large "V" shape of light. Li Hui declines to provide any kind of definition for this piece, instead hoping that visitors use their imaginations to think whatever they can about the piece and discover the mystery of light for themselves.
