Walking in the light: Het Licht van Jan by Matthias Oostrik
In an underpass close to the centre of Amsterdam, Dutch artist Matthias Oostrik created a light installation that turns on whenever a pedestrian goes by, lighting up the narrow sidewalk and time-worn walls.

Light installation by Matthias Oostrik in Assen
Using the “De Maten” railway underpass in the Dutch city of Assen is a unique experience. The light installation called Een Spoor van Water—A Trail of Water—by the artist Matthias Oostrik lights up every time a train passes overhead and symbolically connects to the city’s waterways. An artistic expression that helps to pre-empt the atmosphere of a non-place often associated with these infrastructures.
