Family Portrait | Tumi Magnússon

Installation of pigment prints on self adhesive paper. Gallery Sævar Karl, Reykjavík 2000 and National Gallery of Iceland 2016

An eye, a nose, a mouth and an ear of members of my family were photographed. In the same way as in the “Telephone” work, the photos were enlarged to fit walls in the exhibition space. They can be exhibited in different situations and will never look the same in any two spaces as their form must change to adapt to each place.
