Hildur Bjarnadóttir works from a plot of land in Southern Iceland, using plants to make art in unexpected ways. It was three years ago the Icelandic artist acquired the plot Þúfugarðar in the South of Iceland. Bjarnadóttir had no previous connections to the place, but bought it both as a place to live and a place to make art.

– I have for the past three years, been forming roots and planning a future on this land. It is situated in the middle of farmland, flat, with a far extending view to the surrounding mountains and towards the ocean. It has diverse rich flora, which is typical for that part of the country, such as meadowsweet, northern bedstraw and stone bramble, Hildur Bjarnadóttir says.
