Take Your Time : Olafur Eliasson
Vivacity features one of the New Year’s hottest cultural events, the must-see contemporary art exhibition, Take your time: Olafur Eliasson at the Museum of Contemporary Art (MCA). From the artist behind the hugely successful Weather Project installation in London’s Tate Modern, and the New York City Waterfalls Project, this is the first large-scale exhibition by the Danish-Icelandic artist ever presented in Australia.
From light-filled and intensely colourful environments to walk-in kaleidoscopes, Eliasson’s unique, experiential and immersive works explore the intersection between nature and science, organic and artificial.
Drawing upon elements such as light, water, ice, fog, arctic moss and lava rock, Eliasson creates works that will shift your perception and sense of place.
