Yes the brave artsman from se Englands is finally in Iceland . What a journey it
has been, from organising the Liam Scully Liquidation Sale to this moment where
I sit in Hóll, the humble house of the late great Birgir Andrésson (1955 – 2007).
My desk
overlooks the Fjarðará River flowing east, Seyðisfjörður is
dwarfed by mountains on either side
and a snow blizzard has just hit the village, the day prior to my arrival the
town was blessed with good weather reaching 15˚. But I didn’t come here for
good weather so I am rather pleased with myself.
Birgir Andrésson (1955 – 2007) photograph hangs in the lounge. I made the Light-Beam addition because of the strong creative presence that I feel in Hóll |
