The exhibition showcases Eliasson’s unwavering commitment to raising ecological awareness, inviting viewers to contemplate the intricate relationship between humans and the environment firsthand. From the ethereal ‘Yellow Corridor’ to the seismographic ‘Ice Watch’, each installation reflects Eliasson’s decades-long dedication to fostering environmental consciousness.
