Jeppe Hein is widely known for his production of
experiential and interactive artworks that can be positioned at the junction
where art, architecture, and technical inventions intersect. Unique in their
formal simplicity and notable for their frequent use of humor, his works engage
in a lively dialogue with the traditions of Minimalist sculpture and Conceptual
art of the 1970s.
Jeppe Hein grey mirror with neon text inside, can be switched on an off, has a beautiful sentence “be who you are, not who you
were”, that talk about our internal changes, and advises to be and act
according to the person we are today.
