Featured artist @8vala8

Valgerður Sigurðardóttir (°1992, Reykjavík, Iceland) presents two recent ceramic works in which a playful, intuitive visual language is combined with an underlying seriousness concerning femininity, mythology, and cosmology. Her sculptures loosely reference art-historical icons, astrological systems, and folklore, merging personal and universal narratives. In Venus in Libra, echoes of Van Gogh’s The Starry Night, Titian’s Venus of Urbino, and Manet’s Olympia are combined with astrological symbolism of Libra and the planet Venus, associated with love, harmony, and transition. The work situates itself in a moment of tension and anticipation, as if a new existence or identity is about to emerge. In Whisper, this emotional world is further developed in an intimate, ambiguous scene in which a hand within an aureole appears to awaken a child, while whispering female figures hover between care, memory, and potential threat. Together, the works show how Sigurðardóttir uses ceramics as an embodied medium in which myth, emotion, and psychological tension converge.

The artist is included in our groupshow, Clay Matters, reopening on 18 August.
