Fresh Winds in Garður

The International Art Festival "Fresh Winds in Garður" will be held for the third time in Iceland from 21. December 2013 till January 26. 2014.
The theme of the Festival this year is “Vastness” under the artistic direction of Mireya Samper. 
The landscape surrounding the fishing village of Garður, made of lava fields and pastures, is open to winds from the Atlantic ocean, from the north, south, and west. 
This is the ideal place to watch the midnight sun.

"Between high and low tide"

Collaborative work with Armando Martinez Gomez (Mexico)
Phare et bois
 Lighthouse and wood

600x300x260 cm

"Á milli flóðs og fjöru" is an allegory of the hard and dramatic process of settlement
 of the first Icelanders.
The old lighthouse´s reality is as an object of symbolic character, 
which marks the boundary between the sea (random space organic chaos, divine, etc.) 
and the land (specific space, non-organic, organized, human, etc.).
