Contemporary hope
In the middle of the room, there is a candle made from beeswax, like the ones found in churches. On the wall, there are four butterflies made from 3D-printed transparent PLA. Each butterfly has a candle and a written wish. The visitor experiences the space like a church, especially because of the smell of candles and incense. The visitor can take the central candle and light one of the butterfly candles. When this happens, a fan turns on and blows out the candle flame, and the butterfly starts to move its wings, making the wish come true. The wishes are contemporary and ordinary, such as wishes for flowers, more likes, and similar desires. This butterfly has a battery that cannot be changed. It moves its wings and makes a beautiful show once, and then it dies.
