Then suddenly his body said stop. In 2009 Hein went down with stress. In this book philosopher Finn Janning follows Jeppe Hein’s development from the tome immediately after his diagnosis with burn out and onward – a period where Hein underwent psychoanalysis and developed and interest in yoga, breathing exercises and spirituality. Janning shows how spirituality has become more present in Hein’s works, and in the book develops an existential philosophy in continuation of the artists spirituality and art.
