For Market Art Fair 2024 Þula presents a duo-booth, exhibiting works by Guðmundur Thoroddsen and Sunneva Ása Weisshappel.
Guðmundur Thoroddsen (b. 1980) is an Icelandic artist who works primarily between the mediums of painting and sculpture. In his abstract paintings, Guðmundur explores colour, shapes, texture, and atmosphere. The use of oil-sticks that the artist creates himself, the canvas gives a feel of a woven material and the shapes gesturing landscape or natural elements.Sunneva Ása Weisshappel, (b. 1989) is an Icelandic artist who works in various mediums, including painting, sculpture, performance, and video art. Sunneva's work is a subversive exploration of femininity, intending to reveal its delicate charm and corrosive secrets, by juxtaposing softness and grit, intertwining themes of time, beauty, and aggression through motifs such as hair, steel, latex, and lace.
Together these works present a unity that connects the viewers to our Mother Earth, femininity, grit, social structure and the fabric of the modern world.
