In conjunction with his current solo exhibition at Denmark’s Louisiana Museum of Modern Art renowned artist Olafur Eliasson has relaunched his homepage, along with an innovative new web-based artwork entitled Your uncertain archive.

A WebGL-based dive into Eliasson’s immense body of work, inspirations, and interests. The experimental archive has been under construction for over four years.

Users can browse freely in “Drift” mode, following an ever-growing pool of connections and associations, or pick a specific interest category to explore—choices include topics like “doughnut,” “fivefold symmetry,” and “Ai Weiwei.”

“I am thrilled that Your uncertain archive is finally open to the world,” the artist said in a statement.
“It is a reality-producing machine, built to generate new content through proximity and contact, and a source of great inspiration to me. It is a living archive that expands continuously. Embrace uncertainty!” Via ArtNet
