Jeppe Hein | Mirror Balloon series

Moving subtly with the air current of the room, Jeppe Hein’s fantastical series of sculptures made out of fibreglass and lacquer create the illusion of real balloons suspended in air, ready to fly off at any minute.

Jeppe Hein (b. 1974, Denmark) bases much of his practice on the relationships that exist between our internal consciousness and more physical elements. Using minimal yet elegant materials that often reflect our own image, as well as forms that playfully encourage us to move our bodies and to change positions, Jeppe Hein creates an interactive and constantly changing dialogue between the spectator, the work, and the exhibition space that surrounds it.

His sculptures, site-specific installations, watercolours and public works create environments in which we are encouraged to imagine new possibilities. In so doing, he challenges us to re-think the ways in which our mind and our bodies are connected, and to reflect on how we navigate through the metaphysical and physical worlds.
