Mót og Mótun traces a journey through Iceland’s elemental terrain – a convergence of land, time, material and story. Meaning ‘impression and formation’, this collection unfolds a tangible sketchbook of gathered relics from a folkloric land in flux – igneous rock, volcanic sand and obsidian, mindfully abstracted to echo a sense of self in place and shifting internal topography.

My process is one of balance, where the unrefined, unpredictable qualities of nature meet with intentional craftsmanship. Methods that resist control, such as sand casting, become an act of observation and response, and the quiet strength found in yielding to uncertainty. Combining resin and found objects, the work speaks of erosion, concealment and renewal, uncovering what lies beneath.

What does it mean to wait? To witness? To adapt? Shaped by natural forces, with glacial patience, the wearer finds themselves slowly, elementally formed.
