''Hnútur'', the Icelandic word for ''knot'', evokes a state of entanglement: material, temporal, emotional. As a title, it reflects the intersecting processes, questions, and energies that have coalesced during a month-long residency in Reykjavík. The exhibition brings together seven artists whose works are tethered not by theme or style, but by the shared act of being in place, of responding to land, language, and each other.


The practices presented weave together disparate strands: geological memory, digital aesthetics, ecological latency, the architectures of play, and the poetics of flight. Across media - video, drawing, sound, sculpture, and installation—the exhibition becomes a network of inquiries into the visible and invisible structures that shape our relationships with time, space, and image.


Together, these works form a temporary knot as interlacing disciplines, perspectives, and timescales. Rather than resolve, ''Hnútur'' holds tension. It invites viewers to slow down, to dwell in the complexity of layered materialities and quiet questions. This pop-up exhibition is both an open studio and an unfolding dialogue, offering a moment to encounter the residues of research, the intimacy of process, and the energy of exchange.
