- Willow paperStudents from the Iceland Academy of the Arts have created a range of materials including this paper, glue and string by adding nothing but heat and water to willow. The process of boiling loosened the bark of the willow and softened the fibres of the leaves and bark. The willow project is an investigation into one of Iceland’s newly gained raw materials, the willow tree.
- Lava tilesOccasionally the hot running lava of Iceland is solidified into a big smooth surface reminiscent of a grand cathedral floor. Tinna Gunnardóttir likes to grasp this wild material and force it into geometrical shapes, which can then be used as a paving material. The lava tiles quickly get colonised by moss and other vegetation. The lava tiles have the size 40x40x2 cm and are made of Icelandic lava.
