The vocals consist mainly of common words used in everyday life focusing on themes such as childhood, happiness, time and the city to reflect unique aspects of Chinese culture, according to Pierre Amoudruz, one of the installation's designers.

The art installation was exhibited for the first time at the Festival of Lights in Lyon, France in 2009. On December 8 of each year, the Festival of Lights illuminates many parts of the city throughout the entire night.

For its China debut, part of the vocal recordings from the 16 mannequins was specifically recorded in Chinese during a residency organized in advance preparation for the show.

The exhibit is also scheduled to light up other Chinese cities such as Shanghai, Wuhai and Guangzhou.
