Eliasson has long been interested in nature and the weather. From the start, he connected his experiences of the Icelandic landscape to the practice of making sculpture. Some works like Wavemachines 1995 replicate natural phenomena.

It is nice to see traditional (or modern interpretation of traditional elements) landscaping prepared and maintained. Perhaps the current residents commissioned the garden a generation ago, when mobile computing and telecommunication were not raging.
In those days one's workplace was one world and one's home was another world; the two were not blurred or encroached upon. But for houses on large rural lots, it is possible that new owners are less inclined to invest money or spend time cultivating a home space, since more and more of their conscious presence and presence of mind dwells in social media spaces or handheld devices; not in the living, breathing context of IRL "in real life."

Room For One Colour (1997)
Monofrequency lamps mounted to the ceiling of a white room emit yellow light that reduces the viewers' spectral range to yellow and black. In reaction to the yellow environment, viewers momentarily perceive a bluish afterimage after leaving the space.

Baby Hulk Jumbo Elephant and CAT Funny Episode for Kids. Baby Hulk Vs Cat Fight like "TOM and JERRY" in Real Life Funny Pranks for Babies, Toddlers, Children and Kids. #KidsOne #3d #Pranks2018 #FunnyVideos2018
This hanging sculpture combines two irregular polyhedra, embedding one within the other to form a single spheroid made of partially reflective, translucent filter glass and thin stainless steel struts. The vertices of the outer polyhedron, which is indicated as a steel framework, correspond to the centres of the glass pentagonal faces of the inner form. Depending on the lighting conditions and the position of the viewer, the artwork changes appearance as the panes of partially reflective filter glass catch the light and reflect the surroundings.

Your Planetary Window, 2019
Eliasson has been making kaleidoscopes since the mid-1990s...For the artist, the kaleidoscope offers more than just a playful visual experience. Multiple reflections fracture and reconfigure what you see. You are offered different perspectives at once, and understand your position in new ways. You might let go of the sense of being in command of space, and instead enjoy a kind of uncertainty. Eliasson often uses the kaleidoscope to bring together the space inside and outside an exhibition. The appearance of both changes as the boundary between the gallery and the world outside is dissolved.
Eliasson has made a series of hanging spheres... Each is structured by a complex yet regular geometric principle. The artist is particularly interested in spirals, as they create a sense of energy within the object and outside it through the shadow and light play on the surrounding walls.

Eine Beschreibung einer Reflexion, oder aber eine angenehme Übung zu deren Eigenschaften, 1995
A spotlight hanging from the ceiling of a darkened room casts light onto a concave mirror located on the floor in the corner of the exhibition space. The mirror directs a shaft of light onto another mirror, rotating on a tripod. This mirror completes a full revolution in 30 seconds, reflecting, as it revolves, an irregular splotch of light onto the reverse side of a round projection screen, which is fixed to the ceiling at an angle and runs down to the floor, blocking the space.
