Icelandic varða are traditional Icelandic sculptures made of stones stacked on top of one another, which can usually be found on the side of the road. This Icelandic custom is an omen for a safe onward journey and goes back to the Viking age. Lana built her own varða as a symbol of her path through Icelandic nature and life. Since her ceramic stones are held together by gravity only, the sculpture embodies balance and harmony.

According to old legends, Icelandic landscapes are home to mythical creatures and even hide petrified trolls. Trolls in Blue Lagoon is Lana’s ceramic interpretation of these stories, where she depicts trolls enjoying a turquoise lagoon of milky silicate water. The sculpture was hand shaped and decorated with a glaze of Lana’s own recipe.

Petrified lava rocks, dark and sharp, covered with green moss hundreds of years old, are characteristic of the Icelandic landscape. The unusual combination of textures and colours gives them a contrasting but well balanced appearance. Deeply inspired by this natural phenomenon, Lana handcrafted her own ceramic version of these lava moss stones.
