Eero Helle: EQ
A monumental work exploring values, individual experience and the interpretation of concepts.
Eero Helle’s monumental work EQ explores how people’s values and the understanding of them are shaped. The work challenges us to examine how individuals experience and interpret certain concepts, often strongly shaped by socially accepted notions.
The light structures in the work depict individuals who form a cohesive whole despite being of different lengths. Depending on where and from how far away the viewer looks at the work, it can appear to be changing and lead to different interpretations.
The artist seeks to raise questions: what do the concepts that refer to the title of the work mean to the individual viewer, and through what perspective does the viewer interpret the concepts of the work as they look at it?
