For 2006 I am planning a project for the Nordic House in Reykjavik. New developments in the idea and construction will be used at the occasion.

”Metamorphosis”, a firingsculpture in Iceland.

The Nordic House will in 2006 be hosting the art project ” Metamorphosis” with the danish artist Jørgen Hansen. The project will take place in August 2006, will cover 2 weeks, reach its climax about midnight 19th of August 2006 – The Reykjavik Night of Culture and result in a claysculpture of temporary duration erected in the wetland reserve in front of The Nordic House, visible from Reykjavik Center and The University of Iceland.

My project is about change and transformation and it relates in several ways specificly to Iceland. I experience Iceland a community with great ability and power of transformation and I believe that it has to do with the immense contrasts that I have experienced there. Iceland is situated right where the slaps of the earth’s crust meet, where the gap between them is constantly growing, where vulcans and new islands are formed.
