Artist studio meeting, Katrín Þorvaldsdóttir // Ari Magnússon, MA Curatorial Practice

For over two decades Katrín Thorvaldsdóttir has conducted her own research and experiments to learn how to preserve seaweed as material, to use in art and design. The connection we all have to the ocean as the womb of the natural world has inspired and driven Katrín all her life. Her principle goal is to ensure the research can be passed on to the coming generations to utilize the kelp even further in the future.
