SOKKAPRJÓNN

Acrylic painting on canvas / 80 x 120 cm / 2013

From the exhibition “Tvíhyggja.” The memories of my mother knitting are many. A reference to an older time in Iceland when things were built from scratch with a lot of love and patience. The same with which my mother raised me. Symbolized by the surreal knitting of the wool socks directly on to the feet.
