Sun Drive

New wall art work at Hálsatorg

Sun Drive, a new wall art work at Hálsatorg in Kópavogur by artist Theresa Himmer was revealed 5th of July. It reflects the suns movement over the course of a year through 12 dashed lines. Each line approximates the suns highpoint on the 21st day of each month of the year, and is painted in white road paint containing tiny glass beads. During sunshine, the light activates the art work, as the glass beads mirror the changing angles between the sun and the viewer.
At the current exhibition in Gerðarsafn Kópavogur Art Museum, it is possible to view work by Theresa by the name: In house production I-III.
