Theresa Himmer, a young Danish/Czech artist and architect, born in Denmark and living in Iceland, has added a sparkling new spin on street art. Using thousands and thousands of mirrored plates, essentially large sequins (the same kind used for apparel), each lightly pinned individually onto buildings around Reykjavik, Iceland, she has turned this booming artist city into a magical, man-made landscape. Challenging the notion of man-made versus nature, The Glacier, The Waterfall and The Volcano are three installations constituting the Mountain Series, a loving tribute to Iceland.
Next stop on our list? Reykjavik!
