Lilý Erla Adamsdóttir (IS)

Lilý Erla Adamsdóttir's works explore the surface of human nature and nature itself through textile works that flutter between fine art, design and crafts. The process is guided by the arbitrariness of the artist who seeks connection and harmony with the material world, where forms and organic repetitions are seen through proximity or distance and leaves the observer in an unexpected place.

Lilý Erla Adamsdóttir's (b. 1985, Akureyri; IS) solo exhibitions include Þula (2021; IS), Akureyri Art Museum (2020; IS), SÍM (2019; IS) as well as group exhibitions at Djúpavík Factory (2021; IS), National Gallery of Iceland (2021; IS) and Textile Museum Borå (2017; SE). Lilý lives and works in Reykjavík, Iceland.

„There is always some kind of tension underneath the surface and I believe we all are some kind of responses to our environment. I carry with me something that has come to me ... and work that into my works and that is how I want to be, in the flow.“
