Earlier this week we visited @listasafnisland 's e Earlier this week we visited @listasafnisland 's exhibition Hello, Universe and it got us thinking. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Humans only visited space for the first time in the early 60s, yet our curiosity and depictions of the universe has existed almost as long as art itself.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How do you think advances in Space exploration and having quality images taken from space itself has affected the way the universe is depicted in art? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do you think it has broadened the artistic horizon or has it narrowed down the scope of imagination?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Head over to our stories or comment here to join the discussion! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

In his exhibition Krókótt / Crooked currently on In his exhibition Krókótt / Crooked currently on show at @reykjavikartmuseum , @klaengur blends documentary and fiction to create a skewed view of everyday events and activities. From this viewpoint, he wants to raise questions with the viewers regarding, among other things, the importance of taking a break in the cycle of everyday life.

Take a break from your cycle of every day life and join @klaengur tomorrow on our stories as he walks us through his exhibition and art practice.

He exhibited 12 Icelandic flags hand-knitted from undyed lopi wool using the different natural colours of Icelandic sheep. This was part of a project he started 6 years prior called Nálægð where he explored ideas of heritage and the sense of identity of the Icelandic Nation. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Together with the flags he also showed drawings of farmstead excavations and passages from a book by Þorvaldur Thoroddsen describing Icelandic nature. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
