The images in the series 'Phantom Cars' originate from a light sculpture I create by placing LED strips along the signature lines of iconic cars. By using my camera and some manual intervention during capture, I am able to generate these mysterious, transparent repetitions, which then create a new, phantom-like car, built of light.
