Hafd\u00eds Helgad\u00f3ttir <\/p>\n\n\n\n

www.hafdishelgadottir.art<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Born in Patreksfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur in Iceland, lives and works in Reykjav\u00edk. Graduated in painting from The Icelandic College of Art and Crafts. Acquired a Masters degree from the Department of Time and Space (Tila Aika) at The Academy of Fine Art \/ Kuvataideakatemia in Helsinki, Finland 1996. Has worked in different mediums, video, drawing, photography, installation and painting and has exhibited works in Iceland at The National Gallery of Iceland, Living Art Museum, Nordic house, Listasafn \u00c1rnesinga\/art museum (Selfoss), National- and University Library a.o. and abroad in Finland, Faroe Islands, Greenland, Germany, Morocco. Has worked and stayed in art residencies in Morocco, the Aaland Islands, Gothenburg and Berlin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main focus in my work for some years now is colour. Gradually leading to painting, with on-site studies of colour harmony in natural surroundings in a landscape as it appears at a certain time in the day, in different seasons and weather. Studying geometric patterns in the Islamic tradition while staying in an art residency in Morocco some years ago, inspired me in several ways and led me to geometric compositions in my paintings as a basis for the main objective, colour relativity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Studying the colours in sketches as they appear through their interaction and the given light and atmosphere each time, the colour palette is given for a composition. A photograph taken on the site provides a reference to the place and time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the process of working in the studio a development of other directly or indirectly related works started to be created resulting in \u201cwork series\u201d each consisting of some or all of the following; a bookwork, multiple, photograph, sketch and painting. The series have elements for uncovering the art working process at least up to a point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I expect to continue to apply this work method \/ process during my stay at the residency in Akureyri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
