Forever Momentary Space (2024)
Video still
Forever Momentary Space Project (2024) explores Iceland's ecosystem and environmental crises through melting glaciers, volcanic landscapes, and soil erosion. Using a drone with a photogrammetry scanner, I create 3D models of icebergs and project a rotating lab-made CO₂ diamond onto them via video mapping. This piece takes place in Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon, where icebergs calve from Vatnajökull, Europe’s largest glacier.

I light up glacial ice washed onto black sand beaches. These ice pieces, polished by powerful waves and filled with seawater, become as clear as diamonds. Photographs of volcanic landscapes and close-ups of melted ice illustrate the effects of soil erosion.
