Abstract

The present invention relates to a device to illuminate an object, comprising an at least partially light guiding and plastically deformable foil; reflective surface means applied to at least a part of the surface of the foil for beamed light to exit the foil, wherein at least the reflective surface of the foil is deformable between two preferential positions, wherein the positions correspond to different beams of beamed light exiting the foil through the reflective surface means.
