Art projects are not limited to art galleries and galleries, but more generally penetrate the public sphere through his architectural projects and public space projects. As a highly representative and influential artist in contemporary art, Eliasson’s work presents a unique diversity. His creative motivation stems from his interest in perception, action, experience and self-awareness. Eliasson is hoping his artwork will appeal to the broader social dimension. For him, art is an important method of transforming from thinking into action.
