Sigurður Guðjónsson

Sigurður Guðjónsson  (Reykjavík, Iceland) is an Icelandic visual artist known for his hypnotic video installations that explore the materiality of time, sound, and mechanical motion. Often focusing on overlooked industrial or elemental processes, his work amplifies the subtle rhythms of matter in transformation. In Field, Guðjónsson presents a new immersive video installation, where material, sound, and light converge in a slow, meditative choreography. At the core of the work is an exploration of glass—not as a transparent or decorative object, but as a medium abstracted beyond recognition. Through close, almost forensic observation and transformation, Guðjónsson distills the essence of glass into flickering textures, rhythms, and movements, dissolving the boundary between material and immaterial. Paired with a resonant sound composition that shifts with subtle intensity, the work envelops the viewer in a sensory field that resists categorization. Field becomes less about what is seen and more about what is felt—an encounter with matter in flux, time suspended, and perception stretched beyond its usual limits.
