Distance

Kling & Bang gallery

In Distance, Guðjónsson explores the basic elements of perception. He intertwines
discontinuous images, sounds and movements, creating a complete structure, that
challenges formalism and aesthetics.The coexistence and friction of visual
perception with other forms of perception has formed Guðjónsson's aesthetics. The
world of his body of work is distant but it physically pulls the audience to the core
of the works, shivering with desire for contact with the significance of the
fundamental shapes.

On the four works presented as one:

Distance, a voyage to a black hole, steel wires and cave wall. Veil, windy sands in
Skeiðarársandur, the invisible wind creates a veil of sand grains covering the earth,
Earth layers, stone tiles on unstable grounds, Connection, a close up of hands,
steel circles, wire.
