  • REYKJAVIK ST'ART UP THE CITY

    Video ST'ART REYKJAVIK

    The aim of this mobility was to connect art and nature. Nature does not have a voice of its
    own so art can play a role in preserving nature and allow us to tread nature with more respect.
    In Iceland folktales and folklore has played a role in preserving nature therefore we believed it
    could serve as a cornerstone for our project. The students were divided into 6 groups, each
    group was given one folk story that had elements of mystery and nature. The students had to
    study the story and thereafter make a video that took these important elements of the folk
    story and created their own story.

    Sensitive Glasses

    In the art gallery in Hveragerði, students made a 3 dimensional art piece related to the folk story that they had been assigned to and masks and glasses from Icelandic sheep wool, that were later on used as a prop for the video making .

    Playing with ink

    Workshop with Soffía Björk where students had to create figures from ink and water.

    Once Upon a Time

    In Hveragerði students were taken to an exhibition that was focused on Icelandic folktales. Famous pictures and sculptures of figures that are found in the stories that each group had were introduced and discussed.

    Six folklord stories

    The students had to study the 6 stories and thereafter make a video that took these important elements of the folk story and created their own story.
