'Notions of movement, time and landscape are addressed in Your disappearing garden (2011), a room-size landscape of obsidian rock that fills the gallery’s main second floor space. A powerful complement to The volcano series, this installation recreates a portion of the volcanic landscape as inspired by Eliasson’s own hikes through the obsidian fields of Hrafntinnusker located in Iceland’s highlands. As viewers engage with this piece and glimpse reflections of the surrounding gallery space and their own bodies and movements in the glassy surfaces, they begin to renegotiate linear perceptions of space as well as the line between reality and representation.'
