JEPPE HEIN: WHEN I STOP THINKING THEN I REALLY AM

About the talk

Jeppe Hein shares his artistic practice and personal approach to life, in which awareness plays a major role. After a burnout, he went on a hike of several days through the Norwegian forests and discovered there the power of silence, which sharpens the senses and self-awareness. Concentrating on silence and the perception of his own breath are starting points for his artistic work. In the project “Breath With Me” he invites participants to paint their own exhalation in the form of a blue line.

“If you can control your breath, you can control your life.”
