NIGHT GARDEN LIT BY THE SUN

JULY 14th, 2009

Striving to demonstrate the importance and beauty of alternative energy, a solar-powered flower garden is being used to light up the night in Jerusalem.

Giant flowers of different shapes and sizes brighten the night with changing colors while opening and closing to the sound of music composed especially for the installation by artists Ravid Hang and Andy Isler. The installation is charged during the day, and comes to life in the dark with energy-saving LED lights, creating a beautiful, tranquil setting.

The Enchanting Night Garden is a co-operation between Israel Electric Corporation and O*GE Architects. Go to this link for more pics and videos.
