2020 was a year for introspection and slowing down while living things continue to grow and mutate around us as they do. During isolation and quarantine, artworks were born of visual ideas which also grew and changed during the year. The imagery in Living comes from within a small radius from my place of quarantine— mostly from the area surrounding the Tjörnin pond in downtown Reykjavík. The key works in the show are an unconscious depiction of the organized chaos of life.
