I Remember the Mountain / Man ég fjallið continues the theme of my recent exhibit, Earth Portraits, with the added filter of memory to the mix. The landscape, similar to a human subject, is always changing and is hard to pin down in a moment. Weather conditions, seasons, lighting, natural forces and human interference all have an effect on what is perceived. By reworking an image captured several years ago, it takes on a life of its own, becoming more and more like a dream.

I Remember the Mountain opens with a reception on June 13th, 4-6pm at the Reykjavík Museum of Photography. 

12 printmakers from Iceland working in as many different media will show at Galleria Joella in Turku, Finland. The show opens on the 4th of June, from 6-8 pm, and will stand until the 16th.

“Graphic Friends” (Grafíkvinir) was established to support printmaking in Iceland. Each year, one artist is chosen to create an edition which is then sold to Graphic Friends for a very reasonable rate. Proceeds go to the Icelandic Printmakers Association.
