Olafur Eliasson (b. 1967) is an Icelandic-Danish artist known for his large-scale installations that challenge the way we perceive and interact with our environments.
His multifaceted practice includes paintings, sculptures, photography, architectural projects and interventions in public space, and explores perception, movement, and embodied experience.
Weaving together tangible and ephemeral elements such as light, sound, mist or water, Eliasson encourages us to see the environment, culture and society from fresh perspectives.
