Visual Resonance
Samsýning / Group Exhibition

Visual Resonance brings together four Netherlands-based artists whose practices explore subtle shifts in perception, time and transformation across diverse media. Their works for Svavarssafn Art Museum engage with the region´s distinctive landscape, ecology, and heritage of local artists represented in the museum’s collection. United by a sensitivity to rhythm, process, and change, their works unfold in quiet dialogue—visual echoes resonating across media and meaning—inviting viewers into a contemplative, unhurried engagement with the visual world.
Pietertje van Splunter (b. 1968) explores colour as both language and landscape. She draws inspiration from Svavar Guðnason’s glacier-inspired palette, cool, luminous hues reflecting Iceland’s ethereal light, translating it into abstract compositions rooted in colour theory and personal perception.
Zeger Reyers (b. 1966) engages with natural systems and organic processes, setting them in motion to reveal cycles of change. His works evoke geological transformation and entropy through playful, alchemical gestures; "boiling stones with fire and ice."
Thom Vink (b. 1965) creates poetic, minimal works that uncover overlooked patterns in urban environments, delving into the organic processes of city life and drawing analogies to psychotherapy, biological structures and perceptual phenomena.
Mekhlla Harrison (b. 1969) explores memory and dislocation through layered, mixed-media landscapes of displacement and environmental change. Her works evoke shifting climates and fractured terrains, expressing the emotional weight of a world in constant flux.
