#5 Art House SF (2324 Market St):
You are invited to the "Unexplained and Invisible" art exhibit.
Kjartan Guðbrandsson and Iris Kristmunds are two emerging abstract artists from Reykjavik, Iceland.
Iris’s work is seemingly simple and minimalistic. Yet, she focuses on painting textures unlike many others: smooth, sandy, polished granite or volcanic rock. And then, there’s often a rhythm and melody in her work. There is enough structure to pull it all together, with just enough freedom and movement to make things unpredictable, free-flowing, and lyrical.
In his current work, Kjartan explores fault lines and cracks, textures and surfaces, light reflections and refractions, lines and pathways. Sometimes his work is focused just on surfaces, and sometimes, he adds layers and depth.
