Olafur Eliasson explains how his recently opened exhibition at London's Tate Modern prompts visitors to look at the world from a new perspective, in this exclusive video interview filmed by Dezeen. • Called In Real Life, the exhibition comprises around 40 works from the last 26 years of the Danish-Icelandic artist's career. • Eliasson hopes the show will challenge visitors' perception of reality – a common theme in his work. • When one leaves an exhibition like mine, I hope that it's not as if you had stepped into some kind of dream machine and then you walk back out into reality, Eliasson says in the video. I really hope that you step closer to reality and see things in higher granularity. • I think that culture and art can ask questions, can entice and inspire you to evaluate things in a greater perspective, he added. • The works on show also reflect the artist's interest in colour theory, geometry, the environment and natural phenomena such as waterfalls. • Read more on Dezeen: https://www.dezeen.com/?p=1381506 • WATCH NEXT: Frida Escobedo interview: I didn’t know I was going to be an architect - • Frida Escobedo interview: I didn’t k... • Subscribe to our YouTube channel for the latest architecture and design movies: http://bit.ly/1tcULvh • Like Dezeen on Facebook: / dezeen • Follow Dezeen on Twitter: / dezeen • Follow us on Instagram: / dezeen • Check out our Pinterest: / dezeen
