Hildur Henrýsdóttir lives and works between Berlin and Reykjavík. She uses different media in her art to give life to her ideas; watercolours, oil on canvas, soft sculptures and sometimes video and photography are part of her process of creation.

Henrýsdóttir’s practice gives an honest insight into the feminine world, deconstructing the idea of perfection and exploring the personal connections humans establish with their bodies and emotions. Her work depicts intimate moments free of taboos, embracing imperfection and blurring the line between what is meant to remain personal and what is socially acceptable to reveal in public.
