Þórdís Jóhannesdóttir Millibil 2024

Even though artist Þórdís Jóhannesdóttir has long used photography as her medium in her art practice she can not be considered a traditional photographer. The photograph is the main material in her works, material she then bends, folds or stretches both literally and metaphorically. The photographs she snapps from everyday life; from other peoples artworks, architecture or nature. The photographs are then used as a basis for further structure of three dimensional art works. The outcome is an artwork that brings forward multiple surfaces that each one reflects light differently and/or making the artwork stretch into the exhibition space and dwell on the borders of two and three dimensiontal works.

Þórdís Jóhannesdóttir studied Fine Arts at Iceland Academy of the Arts; she got her B.a. degree in 2007 and in 2015 she got her M.a. from the same Academy. Alongside her individual art practice she has worked and exhibited in a two people collaborative Hugsteypan. Þórdís has exhibited widely in Iceland in Galleries and Museums.
