More importantly, the conception and premise of the artwork is rooted deeply in the public sphere, where it is widely visible and freely accessible to all.

In keeping with the theme of Nature around the CapitaGreen building, celebrated artist Olafur Eliasson’s above below beneath above evokes the image of ‘aerating roots’ that grow above rather than beneath the ground, hence the paradoxical title. To create this work, Eliasson surprisingly used 56 grey steel tubes to twist and turn between the floor and ceiling of the CapitaGreen office lobby. Walk between these unlikely ‘roots’ to interact with Eliasson’s abstract artwork and experience the awe of Nature’s majesty.
