I do not think making art alone makes it any better than making it with a team of people.
Olafur EliassonWhen museums are left with so little money that their future is in the hands of private donors, then they are unable to develop their own signatures by collecting themselves.

Olafur EliassonOver the years, in making art, I have constantly explored issues dealing with space, time, light, and society. I am particularly interested in how the light of a space determines how we see that space and similarly, in how light and color are actually phenomena within us, within our own eyes.
