Open your mind – Tread softly: Georgina Campbell
Be cast adrift in the haunting landscapes of Iceland, as Georgina Campbell invites you to view her photographic wanderings through this other-worldly place. The title of the exhibition, Open your mind – Tread Softly sets a tone of enquiry taken from a signpost found on a walking trail on Hrisey, a tiny island off the north coast of Iceland. The area, where the artist took residency in 2013, is revered for the natural energy that permeates its surrounds.
Campbell’s esoteric photographs, captured by time lapse, video, computerised images and sculptural forms, seek to find and evoke the natural energy that replenishes both the mind and body through close proximity to this landscape.
