Still building, already feeling it. Tomorrow is opening day. ✦ Art / Earth — Jöklaminni arrives at @bacartlab in Leuven. A work-in-progress exhibition emerging from exchange between artists and scientists in Iceland, Belgium and The Netherlands.

Belgian artists spent a month in residence at @sim_residency in Reykjavík, walking glaciers and working alongside glaciologists. Icelandic artists came to @c.takt in Pelt, tracing a.o. the Dommel and, guided by Nick Steur/@soap_maastricht, the Maas. Scientific field data from the expeditions in Iceland contribute to ICELINK, a European research project on polar ice. Throughout, researchers from @jongeacademie were part of the conversation. The works on view are not conclusions — they are living traces of an ongoing dialogue between art and science.

Opening tonight, Thursday 7 May · 5 pm · free
Exhibition until 23 May · Thu–Sat · 1–6 pm

SÍM Residency artist-in-residence

Janise Yntema (she/they) BE
janiseyntema.com
@janiseyntema

Residency period: May 2026

Janise Yntema is a visual artist working in the genre of landscape: both within and without of an exhibition space, to include photography, installation, storytelling and painting.

Working to engage the elegiac loss of landscape through materials bound to fragile ecological systems and their decline, Yntema works primarily with natural elements: beeswax, natural resin, earth, ash and fibers as well as, elemental forces, such as wind, rain and changing atmospheres to encompass time and erosion.

Within the frame of landscape, encompassing the politics of land appropriation and land exploitation, her focus is the ecological and cultural politics of the changing landscape.

Iceland remains a unique environment: from geothermic energy, to a country built upon a stable political system where gender discrimination is minimized: Thank you, SÌM Residency, for this opportunity to explore the culture, history, myth and the spirit of the people and the land.

SÍM Residency artists invite everyone to their event, Artist Talks, at 1 PM on May 6th at SÍM Residency, Seljavegur 32, 101 Reykjavík.

SÍM Residency is an international self-directed artist-in-residence programme in Reykjavik, Iceland. The main objective of the residency is to provide a venue for international artists to take part in the Icelandic art scene, thereby creating a broader context within which local and international artists can experience their own work.

SÍM Residency seeks to promote an environment of reflection, research, study, and play by providing artists with a working environment that supports the artistic process.

Opið hús í SÍM Residency/Open House at SÍM Residency

Tuesday 28.04.26 - 5:00-8:00 PM

SÍM Residency Project Space
Seljavegur 32, 101 Reykjavík Iceland

SÍM Residency warmly invites you to an Open House at Seljavegur 32. This evening offers a unique opportunity to enter the working environment of the current international artists-in-residence, meet them in person, and engage directly with their ongoing research and artistic processes.

The residency programme brings together artists from diverse cultural and creative backgrounds, fostering dialogue between local contexts and international perspectives. During their time in Reykjavík, the artists have been exploring themes connected to materiality, ecology, technology, and human relations, often through close engagement with Icelandic resources and landscapes.

Visitors are invited to move through the studios and encounter works in progress. The Open House presents a rare glimpse into artistic processes as they unfold: installations, experiments, and material investigations that reveal both method and inquiry. Works include the use of locally sourced materials such as glacier and geothermal clay, Icelandic wool, and organic matter including seaweed transformed into bio-materials. The programme also features casting techniques, analog photography, and film screenings, offering a layered experience across disciplines.

Rather than a formal exhibition, the event emphasizes process over completion, an invitation to witness artistic thinking as an active, evolving condition. It is an opportunity to ask questions, exchange ideas, and experience how artistic practices respond to place, environment, and shared concerns.

This Open House creates a shared space between artists and audience, where studio, exhibition, and conversation intersect.

SÍM Residency presents In Resonance — a group exhibition by artists-in-residence originally on view at SÍM Project Space (Seljavegur 32, 101 Reykjavík) in March 2026, the exhibition is now available as a virtual experience until July 16th.

🔗 Follow the link in bio to enter the virtual exhibition

In Resonance brings together five artists who participated in the international SÍM Residency from January to March 2026, culminating in an exhibition at SÍM Residency Project Space in Reykjavík. Emerging from a shared yet deeply individual period of research and experimentation, the exhibition reflects on resonance as both a method and a condition - acoustic, bodily, symbolic, and ecological.

Across their practices, resonance unfolds as a space of encounter: between movement and notation, voice and geology, body and environment, intuition and structure. The residency became a site for testing these relationships - where ritual gestures, sonic experimentation, and symbolic languages intersect and expand. Works developed during this time engage with processes of listening and translation, attuning to frequencies that exist beneath and beyond immediate perception.

The exhibition contributes to Reykjavík’s vibrant cultural landscape, highlighting the role of international artists in shaping a diverse and evolving artistic community. IN Resonance invites audiences to listen closely - to what vibrates, emerges, and connects across different scales of experience.
