fingers in a red state but not yet bleeding

The exhibition "fingers in a red state but not yet bleeding" at Irène Laub gallery in Brussels features the work of Guðný Rósa Ingimarsdóttir. Ingimarsdóttir's artistic practice is characterized by a web of delicate connections that reconfigure with each presentation, making her body of work appear renewed in form and materiality. Her creations transform and shift according to a logic of open and evolving interrelationships, reflecting her way of being in the world.

This instability is evident in her relationship with the photographic image, which has become a structural element in her recent works. Ingimarsdóttir manipulates existing photographs through cutting, peeling, stitching, and layering, transforming them into a layered material with a sculptural dimension. The boundaries between photography and drawing blur, with forms circulating freely between mediums. Her work remains eternally open to transformation, reactivation, or disappearance, inviting a physical encounter with its density of detail.
