Pressure is a big doodle of light, made of a transparent tube with pixel-controlled LED inside. It is meant to illustrate the complexity of the human thought process and has a resemblance to the human brain. Pressure stands with light running through the tubes creating its own life.
Pressure makes you think about life itself, what is right and what is wrong. All of these thoughts and states of mind are put under pressure, with their changing slow and fast-moving lines shooting through the tubes, creating a living organism that stands proud. Pressure contains everything and nothing, on the one hand, it can be just a doodle in the air, created by doodling in a phone conversation, and on the other hand, it can be the neurological network inside our brain, where everything seems to be chaotic but has a coherence.
