NOON

Guðný Guðmundsdóttir's solo exhibition, curated by Christine Nippe, refers to nymphs, which the artist takes up in the media of photography, installation, ceramics and drawing as in their three forms of existence: water lilies, dragonflies in the developmental stage and spring nymphs. These elements are combined with another theme that has often been woven into Guðmundsdóttir's imagery in the past, namely the aesthetics of heavy industry, represented by seemingly unassailable machines and industrial buildings that are, however, not as powerful in relation to both the sun and the universe as they appear at first sight.

In very aesthetic works, the morphological similarities between oil platforms and water lilies are explored, similarities between the largest and the smallest emerge, and with them a quiet questioning of our human perspective.
