CMYK/Greyscale project
Rather than explore thematic similarities or differences between
the works of artists in this diverse region, the twin exhibitions
Greyscale and CMYK divide works into two categories, across national
and sectarian borders, according to the lowest common denominator,
depending on whether they are made in black and white or colour.
In most cases, the mono- or polychromatic nature of the works
is deliberate and integral to the piece.
Taking their titles from graphic design, these exhibitions allow
works to be included from multifarious media including drawing,
painting, photography, film and video. It is intended that works
will continue to be added to the exhibitions in close co-operation
with host venues.
Participating artists include:
J. Tobias Anderson
Ross Birrell
Jacob Dahlgren
Gardar Eide Einarsson
Lars Staffen Evjen
Mai Hofstad Gunnes
Saskia Holmkvist
Icelandic Love Corporation
Jakob Jakobsen
Andrea Jespersen
Paddy Jolley
Jakob Kolding

Tykkä - THRILLER
Following a NIFCA
residency at Delfina Studios in London and a memorable appearance
at the Venice Biennale with her film Lasso, NIFCA has commissioned
a new work from Finnish artist Salla Tykkä.
The 35mm film,
Thriller, is part of the same trilogy as Lasso, which collectively
explores the development of a girl from childhood to adulthood.
Whereas Lasso commented on Westerns, Thriller makes a reference
to the horror genre through its cinematography and musical score.
As we have come to expect from Tykkä's work with Lasso, this
film includes many overlapping layers, from a subtle exploration
of personal fear, uncertainty and guilt to more explicit expressions
of anger and violence.
