While waterfalls freeze and thaw alternately, you weigh eggs You weigh 60 eggs and come to some conclusion, but know it would be completely different if you were to eat them You consider the matter If you sit and wait for the valley veil, you will find that you can see the horses and not the feet If, however, you climb the mountain you sweat and move closer to the clouds The clouds sparkle and take the floor: Of pearls you have come... but you are disturbed and can't hear the rest The gravity pulls on you and asks you to slide down the hillside While you throw down, you wonder how much 16 people could weigh in aggregate The math stings like the snow Waterfalls, you go home and get eggs. (Eyrún Ua)

Reflections and results from a two-week stay in Seyðisfjörður inform a group exhibition of third-year students of the Fine Arts Department of the Iceland University of the Arts. The group drew inspiration from the life and history of the village and produced new works on-site with the guidance of artist Gunnhildur Walsh Hauksdóttir. The subject matter ranges from water, wind, weather, clouds and love. During their stay, they have familiarized themes with the village and visited Herðubreid Community Center, Geirahús, the LungA school, Print Work Seyðisfjörður, the Technical Museum workshop. They received a lesson on archives from the knowledge of the knowledge and information from the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge and information from the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge and information.
While waterfalls freeze and that alternately, you weigh about it. You weight 60 eggs and come to a conclusion, but know that it would be very different if you were to eat them. You think about it. If you sit and wait for the fear you are made... but you are disturbed and cannot hear the rest. Gravity pulls you and a couple's skin to the hill's beauty, and a smaller store.
