Danish Matches was realised on 26 May 2007 in an area around Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Coppenhagen, Denmark. The performance is inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s tale The Little Match Girl. At 10 a.m. that day, Yang Zhichao lit a match and started walking along the roads around the art museum. He burned around two thousand matches one after another during the performance that lasted for 6 hours, until he returned to the art museum at 4 p.m..
《丹麥之火》于2007年5月26日在丹麥哥本哈根的路易斯安那現代美術館附近區域實行。作品受到安徒生童話《賣火柴的小女孩》啟發。當天上午10時，楊志超點燃一根火柴，從美術館開始沿著周圍的道路行走，在6小時中相繼點燃約二千根火柴，直至下午4時回到美術館。
