We warmly welcome you to the opening of Kristín Morthens’ exhibition ‘We Got Time’ on May 23rd between 5-7pm.

‘We Got Time’ explores the act of pausing within uncertainty and extending that moment forward. Twilight – neither day nor night – becomes a symbol of transformation, transition, and possibility.
The series is inspired by Jónsmessa (Midsummer), a time when the veil between worlds thins and nature is at its most potent.The concept reflects both hope and fear at turning points – moments when everything feels possible and time seems to stretch.

‘We Got Time’ started at Market Art Fair as a prologue to her solo exhibition at Þula.

Kristín Morthens (b. 1992)
Kristín Morthens’ paintings navigate themes of boundaries, intimacy, and separation through fragmented, limb-like figures situated within abstracted spatial environments. These ambiguous forms often engage in gestures of near-connection - reaching, pulling, or folding inward - suggesting moments of suspended interaction or emotional tension.

Her exploration of corporeality is underscored by layered material processes, incorporating oil, ink and spray paint. Through strategic masking techniques, Morthens creates contrasts in surface and texture that emphasize the liminal space between presence and absence, materiality and illusion. This interplay of media articulates a visual language of touch and distance, evoking psychological and physical thresholds.

Morthens has exhibited widely in Iceland and internationally, with works held in both public and private collections. Selected exhibitions include Axis (2024) a duo exhibition with Scott Everingham at Þula; Art is Our Only Hope (2025), a group exhibition at the Reykjavík Art Museum; and her 2023 solo exhibition Air Under Water, at Þula.

Kristín Morthens lives and works in Reykjavík, Iceland.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Guðmundur Thoroddsen’s exhibition, Hendingar / Happenstance, is on view at Þula until May 17 - final weeks.

From the exhibition text, “Much like the occurrences in poetry, sentences and alliteration come together in colors and forms that Guðmundur records on canvas with effortless brushstrokes and the sharp drawing of oil sticks. The paintings are not calculated; they are fluid and impulsive, where one thing leads to another and ultimately come together in perfect balance.“

Kristín Morthens
We Got Time

Þula is proud to present Kristín Morthens’ solo presentation at Market Art Fair 2026.

In We Got Time, Morthens explores the act of pausing within uncertainty and extending that suspended moment forward. Twilight, neither day nor night, becomes a space of transformation and possibility. Inspired by Jónsmessa (Midsummer), when the veil between worlds thins and nature is at its most potent, the presentation reflects both hope and fear at turning points, when everything feels possible and time seems to stretch.

The booth features large-scale paintings alongside a sculptural installation, serving as a prologue to Morthens’ forthcoming solo exhibition at Þula in 2026.

We look forward to welcoming you.
