Olafur Eliasson (b. Copenhagen 1967)

Elias Hjörleifsson (b. 1945, d. 2001)

Untitled. Signed and dated Olafur Eliasson, Elias 99. Pen on paper. Sheet size 65×70 cm.

Provenance: Stalke Galleri, Copenhagen.

This drawing is based on a concept that Eliasson produced with his father, Elias Hjörleifsson. Hjörleifsson, who was an artist as well as a sailor, created the drawings on the boat where he worked. A pen was hung from the ceiling of the ship's dining area, touching paper, which absorbed the ink. The ship's movement made the drawing.
