'The path series...[conveys] the literal unforlding of a Hamish Fulton-like journey from beginning to end. The first image [in the grid] marks Eliasson's departure, and the series features a horsizontally sequened arrangement of pictures taken at various stages along the way, clumintating in the end point...a close reading of the road itself pervades The path series, with a relatively consistent close proximity to the ground,maintained while all other referencesto place are excluded."
(Matthew Drutt, 'Olafur Eliasson: A Cultivated View', from Olafur Eliasson: Photographs, 2004, p. 12)
