Suðurland is a photographic homage to the abstract beauty of our planet. The series of drone photographs reveals fascinating patterns, colors and structures of the river landscapes in the south of Iceland that are usually hidden from our eyes on land. Natural river courses create abstract patterns and show a unique variety of colors due to enriched sediments. To capture the ever-changing appearance of the braided rivers, I traveled to Iceland multiple times in 2023 and 2024. Suðurland invites you to view nature as a work of art and to rediscover the hidden aesthetics of this unique landscape.
