To Höller, museums and galleries are places of experimentation, offering a space and time where you can try things out that you can’t try otherwise’ as well as the opportunity for “large-scale experiments with people”.

His “laboratory of doubt,” embodied in objects ranging from carousels and slippery slides to upside-down goggles, often contains playful, hallucinatory or darkly humorous overtones in order to provoke experience and reflection.
A crop of magic mushrooms hanging upside-down from the ceiling, with the modern sculptures Höller aims to disorient and by doing so, stimulate precognitive moments of pure sensation.
