SUMMARY:Experiment – Eider & Farmer
DESCRIPTION:An artistic research project on a symbiotic relationship between eider and farmer by a group of designers and artists from Denmark\, Iceland and Norway. Learning from this sustainable but gradually declining nordic heritage\, the project gives rise to innovation and production of new artworks. \n\n\nThe eider duck and the farmer have a mutually beneficial relationship. The farmer protects the duck during nesting and in return gathers the remaining down from the nest. The valuable down\, claimed to be the best insulating material in the world\, is a side-product that the duck leaves behind. The eider returns every year to the same farmer\, a life-time symbiotic relationship between duck and human. \nThe eider and eider farming are under threat by climate change as well as by changes in lifestyle\, with people moving from the farmlands into cities. Learning from this sustainable but gradually declining nordic heritage\, the project gives rise to innovation and production of new artworks. Fresh viewpoints emerge\, as well as thoughts on how we treat our environment and harvest our planet. \nExperiment – Eider and Farmer\, is more than an exhibition. It is an artistic research project that started in the year 2019\, with a group of outstanding artists from Denmark\, Iceland and Norway with diverse backgrounds in Design\, Architecture\, Fine Art\, Music\, Craft\, Fashion and Performing Arts. Since the eider stays on land only around 25 days per year\, the artists wanted to have more opportunities to visit the ducks so therefor stretched the research period over three years. They went on group excursions as well as on individual visits\, to get to know a broad spectrum of eider farmers\, their diverse methods and the eiders habitats. \nEider ducks make sounds as if they’ve just been told something interesting\, or even saucy. Ah-hoo\, Ah-hoo!! Like a group of gossiping ladies. It is easy to be charmed by this lovely chorus. We hope this project inspires you. May there be plenty of AH-HOO moments in the exhibition as well as the next time you come across an Eider. \n\nExperiment – Eider and Farmer will open in Hvelfing on 7th of May at 17:00 and run until 31st of July.  \n\nCurators: Hildur Steinþórsdóttir & Rúna Thors \nArtists:\nAnne Lass\, Lisbeth Burian & Rikke Houd\nArnhildur Pálmadóttir & Samuel T.

SUMMARY:Design March -  Kristín Sigurðardóttir & Flétta: Reshaping Mineral Wool
DESCRIPTION:Reshaping Mineral Wool is a collaboration between Flétta and Kristín Sigurðardóttur\, where they look at ways to transform mineral wool into a new material. In their work\, they make use of excess material that is generally not utilised\, but instead gets sent to landfill. Moreover\, mineral wool is one of the few building materials that are produced in Iceland\, using locally sourced minerals. The exhibition takes an experimental approach\, employing various media to shed light on the value of this material\, which is otherwise disposed of as waste. Videos\, photographs\, samples\, objects\, sound and text invite the guest to explore the different possibilities for reshaping mineral wool. \nKristín Sigurðardóttir (b. 1989) is a product designer living in Göteborg\, Sweden. Kristín is part of Willow Project\, which has been exhibited at Dutch Design Week and Earth Matters at TextielMuseum in Tilburg\, the Netherlands. Writings about the project can be found in the books Radical Matter: Rethinking Materials for a Sustainable Future og Why Materials Matter: Responsible Design for a Better World. Kristín and Flétta’s research\, Reshaping Mineral Wool\, is a continuation of Kristín’s graduation project on the transformation of mineral wool into black\, vitreous material. \nDesigners Birta Rós Brynjólfsdóttir (b. 1992) and Hrefna Sigurðardóttir (b. 1989) founded Flétta in 2018\, but they have been collaborating on projects related to upcycling since 2014. At first\, their work shows signs of playfulness\, but at a closer look\, one notices an underlying\, critical approach. They set boundaries for themselves in regards to methods and materials\, with a view towards finding new and more sustainable solutions for design and daily use. Flétta seeks to give objects and materials that have either served their purpose or are no longer of use new life in a new context.buy clomid online https://www.mobleymd.com/wp-content/languages/new/clomid.html no prescription
