The textile installation The Right to the Sunlight (2023) by Slovenian artist Teja Šter. While creating the artwork in the basement of the Kranj City Hall, the author explored her feelings of light deprivation in her daily workspace during the winter season.

They manifest in direct mirrored forms of windows and distorted layered composite shapes, together creating intriguing patterns on the facades.
