‘... like the dream of a world that is visible before it takes shape as a reality’.

A Woman in the Polar Night
Christiane Ritter

For the time we spend with these photographs, life on any other terms feels untenable. When we are finally forced to tear our gaze away, we mourn the loss of their searing lyricism - fields of vision where everything is stripped back to its essence. This is at once the Iceland of our mythic imaginings and a reality so acutely, so urgently real, we feel it on our retinas and in our bones.
