An exhibition by Hildur Erna Villiblóm.
Welcome to the exhibition opening will be on Friday, December 5th at 16:30.
Hildur Erna specializes in photography and image processing mixed with painting, drawing, and writing. Through the lens, she most often explores the female body, capturing themes such as identity, transformation, and the raw essence of earthly flesh.
Her unique approach challenges conventional notions of beauty, inviting viewers to find it in the unexpected and the unconventional. Over the years, Hildur Erna has worked on a variety of projects, including book cover and poster design, and most recently, the artwork for the musician Kaktus's album cover, which went on to win the Icelandic Music Award and the FÍT Award in the music graphics category.
She has participated in group exhibitions in London and Edinburgh, but since moving back home, she has held two solo exhibitions; at Gallerí Gröf in 2022 and at Lóla Flórens in 2023, in addition to participating in a group exhibition at Flæði Gallerí in 2023.
