twilight rökkur tusmørke
Rökkur, Tusmørke, Twilight Steinunn has lived in Denmark for almost 30 years. All these years, she has gone "home" to Iceland, several times a year. Steinunn is very connected to her old country, especially to nature. In this series Rökkur, Tusmørke, Twilight, she works from breathtaking moments, which are connected to nature: the time when sky and sea meet as one. Where everything is blue, and behind, there are shadows and light, in shades of blue. The Twilight time. Steinunn takes these moments into everyday life and fantasy. Steinunn also says that life has its Twilight, where we pass from one phase to another. The moment where everything is still for an instant. As we move from one time to another. Where all is one.

Spirit thread The inspiration for these works is connected to the history of Steinunn . In many Icelandic families, it was a tradition for women to embroider pictures, and sew these into cushions, on chairs and other things that adorned their homes. At the beginning of Steinunn's career, her work was based on the patterns that were connected to both Icelandic history and the history of Steinunn's own family Over many years, these works developed in the direction that can now be seen, in this exhibition. Today, Steinunn is also inspired by her daily life in and around her home. Daily life and the connection to what is closer in time and space. The birds, the flowers, the kitties, and the dog. Steinunn sees it as thread of life, its connection to life and to all beings.
