The Freefall Series depicts an illuminated figure of a person in the motion of falling by using light filters that cast light and color onto the wall. Borrowing a visual technique used in animation and comic books, each piece uses the lines of light to emphasize the directional motion of the person.

The Freefall works are from a series of 13, each unique. Clar was inspired by motion lines in comic books and animation, recreating this effect through lines of light. Other works in this series are in the collections of the Yves Klein Foundation (Paris), the Borusan Collection (Istanbul), among others.
