I have always been interested in Olafuer Eliasson's Olafuer Eliasson's work, but until now it has never really deeply touched me. It all changed when I recently visited his exhibition at Kunsthaus Zug , in Zurich. His work of Lava is extraordinary as your perception of it increases gradually as you look at it more carefully. The sound also made by walking on the lava sand plays a sensational game with the exhibition space, echoing within the museum's white cubes. His video emphasises the significance of the moment which only exists when our presence is the counterbalanc to its phenomenon. It is great to hear 'this is not here when we are not here' The magic lies with the extrapolation of discreet component of its phenomena and perception/sensatoin.
The magic is... signification of descrete component of its phenomena/sensatoin.
