“Time is like water, / and the water is cold and deep / as my own consciousness” (Steinn Steinar 1948) Glacierlight, Lækningaminjasafnið 2016, Reykjavík. Light Sculpture Installation, mixed media This installation consisted of lights with contour lines of glaciers on light bulbs, which cast down graphics of the outlines of several glaciers from the first measurements from about 1890 to the last measurements at the beginning of this century. The glaciers are disappearing, and I wanted to draw attention to it in a context other than a traditional map or photograph so that we could sense and experience this fact that we are facing today. Thus, I can say that I map my perception of the phenomenon of a vanishing glacier rather than mapping the glacier itself. Regarding to this, I am mapping some kind of inner landscape perception of the outer glacial landscape.
