Home Run 


Series of digital photal photographs 2016/2017 that explore how identity and stereotypes are displayed and stated through sports, activities, behaviour and images.
The title Home Run is a phrase that comes from the game of baseball, when a player is able to circle the bases and reach home safely in one play without any errors. In this case Home Run refers to the artist dealing with idealism and realism in her own environment and culture. How, Icelandic culture has become unfamiliar and slightly exotic through stereotypes and branding. How does the image or archetype of Iceland and “real” icelander identify with Icelandic reality and daily life?
