Jeppe Hein

Shaking Cube

2004
aluminium and motar

50 x 50 x 50cm

Jeppe Hein’s sculpture and installations explore the relationship between viewer and artwork. Using the minimalist aesthetic of the archetypical cube, Hein’s Shaking Cube is both sculpture and mechanical object. Framed by an invisible field of motion sensors, the work is impelled by the movements of the viewer. Using sculpture as an expanded field of social interaction, Hein calls into question traditional perceptions and functions of art, creating a work that can only be experienced through the viewer’s participation.
