Embodied Morphologies brings together three international artists whose practices explore the body as a site of transformation, perception, and material encounter. Developed during their one-month SÍM Residency in November 2025, the works reflect a range of artistic inquiries - from the tactility of analog photographic processes to immersive digital video and spatial installation.

Artworks gesture toward the shifting forms through which the artists sense, record, and interpret their surroundings. Through darkroom experimentation in collaboration with Ljósmyndaskólinn, intimate lens-based studies, sculptural arrangements, and moving image works, the exhibition traces how physical, emotional, and environmental impressions become translated into visual and spatial morphologies.
