“Creative Responses” at the Akureyri Art Museum. The exhibition opened on November 27 and runs through February 8, 2026.

For this edition of the exhibition series, my work Spell, was on display among many great works by 16 other artists. See list below.

The exhibition focuses on ideas drawn from a collection of articles titled “Creative Responses to Environmental Crises in Nordic Art and Literature" (2025) and centers around the role, responsibility, and significance of art and culture in the face of today's accelerating environmental change.

A collaboration between the University of Iceland’s Thingeyjarsveit Research Center, Specta Gallery, and the Akureyri Art Museum, the exhibition is led by curators Thordis Adalsteinsdottir and Audur Adalsteinsdottir. The exhibition presents artworks discussed in the anthology, as well as works by additional artists whose practices resonate with its core questions. Together, these works shed deeper light on how art responds to ecological crises and the emotional and cultural issues arising from them.
