“Asukas” (Finnish for “residents”) is a series of stainless-steel sculptures whose shapes replicate the reflections of sunlight in Vilnius.
The asukas on the stairs and facade of the Paupys adapt to the local architecture and exactly replicate the reflections from the windows of the building opposite to them at precisely 10.18 a.m.
