Shownotes Transcript

The episode is devoted to speaking with Sigurður Guðjónsson who is best known for his striking time-based media works that often focus on human-made machinery and technical relics, investigating their enigmatic, hidden elements, just beyond our field of vision. Becky and Tinna talked with Siggi about his contribution to La Biennale di Venezia, the multisensory sculpture Perpetual Motion. They also discussed  his art practice throughout the years as well as two exhibition openings in Reykjavik, Iceland this October 'Perpetual Motion' at BERG Contemporary and 'Transits' at Reykjavik Art Museum curated by Mónica Bello.
