Sigrún Gyða Sveinsdóttir (b. 1993, Iceland)
Visual artist, stage director &#38;amp; opera maker
sigrun93@gmail.com for questions about sales or interest.
Sveinsdóttir’s work straddles the border between visual art and classical opera compositions, bringing present-day visual imagery into focus through strong social contrasts. As she explores themes of systematic control, she portrays issues of power distribution and physical labor through references to popular culture and everyday tragicomic motifs. Sigrún has participated in numerous performance and opera projects, both her own and in collaboration with others, primarily in Reykjavík and Amsterdam, where she is now based.

		<description>SKJÓTA OPERA (2024)
Life opera performance (90:00) and an installation (recycled textile, wood, fountain pumps, solar panels, plastic, metal and costumes from the opera).
Skjóta is a full lenght opera that debuted on June 7th in Iceland within an solo exhibition by Sigrún Gyða. It is a chamber opera that now seeks co-production outside of Iceland. The opera is in English and is performed by singers Vera Hjördís Matsdóttir, Kristín Sveinsdóttir/Sterre Decru and Sigrún Gyða Sveinsdóttir with local string players and electronic musician Baldur Hjörleifsson.Skjóta tells the story of a football player that decides to dedicate her life to climate action and the following interplay between various power dynamics around her. The opera explores the intersection of football culture and climate change, highlighting how unity within football can foster solidarity as well as asking questions about climate guilt and anxiety. Skjóta reflects on the jeopardy of stepping out of ‘halftime’ to take action rather than remaining passive, whether an individual can truly have a say in the rapid progression and politics of climate change. The work is the same length as a football game,WITHThe player: Vera Hjördís Matsdóttir

		<description>Pareidolia’s Dream (2023)Line Drawn at Ísafjörður Art Museum w. Elísabet Anna Kristjánsdóttir, Svavar Guðnason and Karl Kvaran.
Currated by Rannveig Jónsdóttir.With the installation Pareidolia's Dream, Sigrún studies the colors and shapes in Svavar Guðnason's artwork. The shapes in Svavar's drawing travel with Sigrún to a psychology session she attended as a child following a benign brain tumor the size of a tomato and the hallucinations after doses of morphine. Pareidolia becomes a symbol for the sun and describes her fears of escalating temperatures, impending obscurity, micro plastics and her parents' arguments in front of the television.

		<description>MID, time of the foresighted silence (2024)
NEXT ON SHOW AT IJSSELBIËNNALE 2025
Video (12:00)
at Vitamin D, Group Exhibition at Reykjavík Art Museum, Reykajvík, IS.
This work is part of the opera Skjóta. Based on research on climate issues and football, the work considers how halftime can be a metaphor for life itself. The first half represents birth, and the second half represents death. In halftime, the most significant decisions are made, especially if one is sitting in the best seats and has real power to change the course of the game. With this work, Sigrún aims to explore the basic emotions that the game ignites and raise important questions about climate shame and climate anxiety.

During the opera’s production, Sigrún spent time in residencies in Brighton (UK) and Värmland (SE), where she explored football culture, climate issues, and their connections. In creating MID, she collaborated with children from the local Reykjavík Football Club KR and the local children’s choir by the pond. Additionally, opera singer Vera Hjördís Matsdóttir performs in the work. The filming took place in heavy cold rain and stormy weather in the midst of winter during the first days of the new year.

		<description>HLAUPA: Opera in II acts (2021)Opera performance (25:00) and an installation (video, metal, glass, tufted capets, running harnesses and running shoes). HLAUPA talks about renewal, birth and death. Beginning and end. The self and social media staging. To look into the fire and have it swallow you, like melting glass or liquidy lava. To be a troll that becomes a stone on purpose and stops running. Five modern trolls tell the story of a stone that used to be alive and how they have to cope with the feeling of being observed.w. Helena Kesskÿla, Moa Holgersson, Vera Hjördís Matsdóttir and&#38;nbsp;Ciara O’Kelly &#38;nbsp; &#38;nbsp;Ears: Nell SchwanGraphics: Studio Buy my talentPhotos by Tom Janssen
HLAUPA was made into a film in 2022 and shown at the abandoned Fishing Factory at Hjalteyri in the North of Iceland. In the film version, Margrét Daðadóttir and Hildur Elísa Jónsdóttir, accompany Vera Hjördís Matsdóttir and Sigrún Sveinsdóttir as the troll sisters.

		<description>Code’s Dream (2021)Sound Sculptures: Soundworks played online, concrete, plastic, metal and blues harmonicas.


Series of three works spread over the large outdoor exhibition area of Laugardalur at the group exhibition Teygja (Hjólið 2021). 

The works merge music and art, nature and man-made systems. Each sculpture is actually a character who lives in digital clouds and sings an aria to their surroundings. In fact, the ode is more about their inner longing and desire, which underscores man's unilateral relationship with his environment. The three sculptures each represent a man-made system that characterizes their location: Nature in the Botanical Garden, exercise and fitness outside of World Class, and transport on sea at Skarfaklett. With the work, Sigrún Gyða examines how human intervention is necessary for us in order to have a natural experience.&#38;nbsp;Composition and lyrics by Sigrún Gyða Sveinsdóttir (apart from lyrics in 64.141764, -21.870164) Lyrics in 64.141764, -21.870164 are by Árni HjartarsonSound Production and mastering by Jethro CookVoice by Sigrún Gyða Sveinsdóttir and Hildur Elísa Jónsdóttir.Technical assistance by Sveinn Harðarsson, Sigurbjörn Ingvarsson, Vincent Mensink and Arnór BogasonCurrated by Sunna Ástþórsdóttir

We are here, we are there, we are nowhere. We are connected to everyone and we are connected to no one. The sea carries waves of all kinds. Water from continent to continent, from place to place. Rivers are the veins of the sea, creating a network of substance where life and history of the Earth are in constant motion. We live in the age of a global and networked digital world. A world in which we encounter space and place through virtual bodies. We can see and interact with everyone from anywhere at any time. It re-renders our experience with each other. Places become generic. We are generic. Everything is generic. Nothing is generic


Big thank you to Huib Koel, Esther Way, Javier, Sam Koel and David Koel for making this possible.

		<description>A Change is as Good as a Rest (2020)Video (4x 00:15) and 3x textile floorcarpets.at Fokhelt, Ísafjörður, IS.
With the work Sigrún Gyða wonders if she can link the image of the fast melting glaciers to the image on social media that disappears after 24 hours. A disappearing image that only stays with you as a memory you don't want to forget. 24 hours is a lot when it comes to an image of a party you went to yesterday although it’s little contrasted with a reversed ice age.
I found myself using social media much more than before. I frequently checked the news and spent more time at home and
therefore used my phone more as entertainment. I even put in my scheduled social media/news-less hours and kept myself occupied by knitting and running in nature instead. First, I didn’t notice the advertisements that much, I just skipped over it, occasionally I took a screenshot if it was trying to sell me a silly object. Then one day I realized that the variety of ads
was much more. There where ads from musicians, painters and local shops and the images had also changed. They had become more personal and had better design quality.
At the same time, I had also 
been looking into how nature is seen on social media. Into the connection many Icelandic entrepreneurs portray they have through advertisements and how they portrayed themselves in sublime nature in clothes from the biggest outdoor clothing brands or in front of a cabin they got to stay in in return for sharing the experience with their followers.

		<description>I Want You to Draw Me Like One of Your French Girls (2019)
Video (09:50)at Allt á sama tíma, autumn show of Hafnarborg museum, Hafnarfjörður, IS.
Curated by Andrea Arnarsdóttir and Starkaður Sigurðarson(Re-exhibited in 2023 at the exhibition ‘Our Art’ collection exhibition at Reykjavík Art Museum)
The work I want you to draw me like one of your French girls was part of the autumn show in Hafnarborg Museum in 2019, Everything at the same time. The work is a video piece that is projected on three walls and has one soundtrack. The video shows women lined up in a black room where they sit and lie, forming an array of naked bodies. The sound track in the video, sung by the lips located in the women's crotches are national songs normally sung by male choirs but in the video it is sung by a female choir. The work speaks to the society's current discussion but it has a strong implication in the revolutions Me Too and Free the Nipple where women's consensus across backgrounds and looks was the key. The work is humorous and shows the impact of social media and how together women have the strongest voice.
