Himself
Olafur Eliasson has been pushing the limits of the sublime and the spectacular in his art for almost 30 years. From his monumental installation, The Weather Project, in Tate Modern's Turbine Hall in 2003 to his recent interventions in climate change and global migration, his is an art which strives to change the world every step of the way. In 2019, the Danish-Icelandic artist returns to Tate Modern with his landmark exhibition, In Real Life, surveying the breadth of his career from his beginnings as an art student in Copenhagen through to the latest pieces created in his vast studio laboratory in Berlin. Much of his work is shaped by his response to his parents' home country of Iceland and the interplay of water and light showcased in its natural phenomena.

고립된 이 우주선에서는 모든 것이 인공적이며 인간의 욕망 또한 통제된다. 과거의 상처로 인해 아이에게 집착하는 의사는, 탑승객이자 지구에서 버려진 죄수들을 대상으로 인공 수정을 시도하고, 아이가 태어난다. 유일한 생존자로 남은 몬테는 어린 딸을 돌보며 버티어 낸다. 블랙홀의 회전 에너지를 확인하여 인류에 크게 기여하려던 임무는 완수하지 못했다. 소녀로 성장한 딸과 몬테는 더 이상 구조의 희망을 기다릴 수 없다. 두 사람은 블랙홀로의 여정을 시작한다.
Production Design
In 2014, artist Olafur Eliasson and filmmaker Claire Denis connected for the first time to explore and discuss their common fascination with phenomena that have not yet been fully explained by science – such as black holes – and their shared interest in abstraction. This short film by Denis, contemplating tests for Eliasson's work ‘Contact’, is one outcome of that conversation which would eventually lead to their collaboration on Denis's film High Life (2018), in which Eliasson designed the light installations at the films end.

What is it that makes a space productive? What makes it challenging? Exiting? Including? Tolerant? Olafur Eliasson: Seeing Space is a portrait of one of the biggest and most influential artists of our time. The film follows the both speed-talking academician and shy artist from 2004 - 2009 trying to understand the implications of Olafur and his mission: creating installations that changes the space around us and thereby the mindset in us.
