??runn Hjartard?ttir?opens an installation in Skaftfell?s project space in Seydisfjordur Thursday, August 20th, where she is in residence for the month. The project space is the old book shop where???runn?has made a time- and site-specific installation called Corrections.
??runn?uses book-binding tape to paint geometry into the space.
I start by taking a good look at the architecture of the space, what signifies it? Is there something in it I wish to emphasize? Do I want to change the perception of the space, make use of visual effects and the perspective? The project space is a very symmetrical room and I decided immediately to take the symmetry even further make a few corrections. I find it challenging to make the most of things and aim to add something to the space. I also find the connection with canvas and books rather poetic.
