NOW AVAILABLE TO VIEW ON NOWNESS.COM. In the short documentary of the same name, created with Tigerlily Productions, director Lana Daher journeys into Eliasson’s concept and process under the interconnected shadows cast across the earth. Revisiting the artwork, Eliasson untangles the profound meaning locked in its recurrent forms and how visitors engage with them, the moving shapes it traces mirroring the way we move through, and interact with, the natural environment.
