As a painter, I choose to put the beauty of the world at the heart of my work. The 66° series:

ICELAND - The Silences of the Soul, shows the fragility of Icelandic landscapes: glaciers, volcanic beaches, midnight sun, boreal light, lagoons. The artist brings back from his travels, wild expanses, grandiose landscapes, Húsavík, Akureyri, Þingeyri, Jökulsárlón, Leirhnjúkur. Painting Iceland is a tribute to its power and vulnerability. MOCAS bears witness to this beauty, to better highlight its fragility. His paintings are a call to slow down, to feel, to reconnect with oneself while respecting the living. In the face of ecological threats, painting becomes a sensitive and poetic gesture of resistance, so that the beauty of this territory remains in memory.
