Holding hands
- • Kristín's energy is tangible in her work
- • She always seeks new experiences
- • She draws on many sources of inspiration
Kristín S. Garðarsdóttir’s studio is contained within an impressive agricultural building which used to be home to Icelandic cows. This expansive space allows her the room to experiment. She creates both functional and sculptural pieces predominately using ceramics. However, her constant boundless energy is always seeking new experiences, as such, she doesn’t limit herself to one material. She has created work in glass, textiles and draws extensively. Her pieces are playful, expressive and colourful. The work has a consistent thread running through it, a vibration that connects all her pieces but is hard to tie down. She explains that each piece "holds hands" with the last, it is a language beyond words.
