Description

Jeppe Hein produces experimental and interactive works that combine different elements of architecture, art, and technical inventions with humor and the traditions of minimalism and conceptual art. Hein is internationally recognized for his works that invite participation and reflection, often using mirrors, text, and interactive sculpture to encourage physical action and interpersonal communication. Here, the artist has taken a set of instructions and transformed them into an inviting and accessible experience.
