Event
Reykjavík Art Museum / 01. July 2021
Anna Andrea Winther and Berglind Erna Tryggvadóttir invite you to take part in a bread sculpting workshop on Sunday the 11th of July, from 13.00 - 16.00 in Reykjavik Art Museum, Hafnarhúsið. The workshop is free of charge and the sculptures will be baked on site for participants to take home. Send an e-mail at info.maltid@mail.com or on facebook.

Beforehand, between the 8th and 10th of July you can follow the dough's growth and progress on Instagram and in person at the museum. There Anna and Berglind will wonder and analyze the personality of the dough and its endless possibilities.

The piece is a part of a research project that Anna Andrea and Berglind Erna are working on this summer, titled “Is this something on bread?”. There they explore Icelandic bread culture and various craftsmanship and traditions in relation to breadmaking. They wonder if bread has a personality, how traditions are made and if bread making can be considered an artform. The project is funded by the Icelandic Student Innovation Fund.
