Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall may seem like a giant playground but its latest interactive installation, by Danish collective Superflex, reflects the challenges society’s apathy towards the political, environmental and economic crises of our age.

Part of this year’s Hyundai Commission, One Two Three Swing! is the third project to take up the gallery’s annual commission to create a site-specific work for the Turbine Hall.

There is an orange line connecting dozens of three-seated swings that weaves through the Turbine Hall, emerging onto the landscape outside Tate Modern where it will activate the space and continue to extend as well as a huge mirrored pendulum hanging from the ceiling at the gallery’s entrance.

In this Facebook Live video, Evening Standard’s online arts writer Jessie Thompson talks about the installation to curators Donald Hyslop (Head of Regeneration and Community Partnerships), Synthia Griffin (Curator of Regeneration and Community Partnerships) and assistant curator Valentina Ravaglia.

One Two Three Swing! is in the Turbine Hall, Tate Modern, until April 2 and admission is free.
