Strip assembly consisting of a number of strips hingeably attached to influence or not to influence light. Strips can be displaced between two positions by static charging/discharging with respect to a support attached near the strip. A voltage source provides the strips/further electrodes with the respective voltage. The strips can be configured to be (partially) non-transparent, allowing light effects to be obtained. In addition, it is possible to configure various strips differently. The strips preferably consist of a foil material allowing an especially simple construction with the aid of a film hinge. Suitable materials include polycarbonate, polyester or plastics material based on aromatics. The surface resistance is preferably at most 1000 M&OHgr；. A broad range of uses are possible. One use is that in greenhouses but the present invention can also be applied at other locations where protection from light is necessary or specific light effects are desired.
