Sigrún Ólafsdóttir - Force and Tenderness - Ernest W Uthemann - Bog

The retrospective of Icelandic artist Sigrún Ólafsdóttir comprises her wooden and metal sculptures as well as her graphic oeuvre. Ólafsdóttir's elegant and dynamic sculptural works can be ample in size, yet they never lose their perfect proportions. They are balanced in a way the viewer cannot tell whether he witnesses a precarious or a stable equilibrium. Weight and lightness as opposed forces are united in the artist's works, bearing the aspect of inherent movement.
