blood & honor / blóð & heiður


In August 2022 the artwork “blood & honor” was unveiled in Akureyri Art Museum, in Iceland.
The work consists of four flags that flutter on flagpoles on the balcony of the museum. The flags are the product of an experiment where few factors were joined into one: the Icelandic national flag, the title “blood & honor”, the font Comic Sans and the letters from the Icelandic alphabet that represent the sounds that people make when they feel pain: A, Á, Ó, Æ.

Í lok ágúst 2022 var listaverkinu “blóð & heiður” frum-flaggað af svölum Listasafns Akureyrar. Verkið eru fjórir fánar sem munu flökkta af svölunum í u.þ.b. eitt ár.
Þeir eru afrakstur tilraunar þar sem nokkrir þættir voru bræddir saman: íslenski þjóðfáninn, þeir stafir íslenska stafrófsins sem tákna hljóðin sem fólk gefur frá sér við sársauka: A, Á, Ó, Æ, leturgerðin Comic Sans og titillinn “blóð & heiður”.
