During the summers of 2014 and 2015, the word of the STEYPA<\/strong> slowly spread among the people in Iceland and from a broad, and the exhibition gained more and more popularity.<\/p>\n Today there\u2019s no doubt that STEYPA<\/strong> has established a name for itself that many people recognize – having seen the show themselves or read about it in the media.<\/p>\n STEYPA<\/strong> is here to stay. Expect to see us again in 2017. For us STEYPA<\/strong> is like watering and nourishing a plant, evoking the beauty in the growth and expansion of it.<\/p>\n Claus Sterneck and Emilie Dalum<\/strong><\/p>\n We, Claus and Emilie, love doing this work and put lots of our free time and energy into making the dream come true! Besides corresponding with the photographers, networking, driving repeatedly between Reykjav\u00edk and \u00d3lafsv\u00edk in Emilie\u2019s old Subaru, we have also arranged the exhibition space, we carry out PR-work and are constantly in contact with each other.<\/p>\n Claus<\/i><\/b> has lived in Reykjav\u00edk since 2008, and has never had any formal training in photography – which means he takes pictures by feeling. \u201eOne of the goals with my pictures is to show a different side of Iceland, apart from mainstream Reykjav\u00edk and other common Icelandic themes.\u201c Definitely not a part of his portfolio: a typical picture of Northern Lights with green sky reflecting on the mountains and water.<\/p>\n Homepage: www.claus-in-iceland.com<\/span><\/a> \/ Facebook www.facebook.com\/claus.in.iceland<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Emilie<\/i><\/b> moved to Iceland in 2012, and has been here since then – only with a short break in the year 2014. Iceland keeps on fascinating her with all its many contrast and surprises. She completed a one-year photography program at the Fatamorgana Danish School of Documentary and Art Photography, and holds a BA in European Ethnology from the University of Copenhagen. She has exhibited her own photographic work in Copenhagen (Denmark), and Dj\u00fapav\u00edk and St\u00f6\u00f0varfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur (Iceland).<\/p>\n Homepage: http:\/\/emiliedalum.com\/<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n STEYPA<\/strong> in \u00d3lafsv\u00edk<\/p>\n After three summers in Dj\u00fapav\u00edk, this year\u2019s exhibition will be held for the first time in \u00d3lafsv\u00edk, (Sn\u00e6fellsnes) from 1 June until 31 August 2016. STEYPA<\/strong> will be held in the former Maritime Museum (Sj\u00e1varsafn) located at the habour.<\/p>\n Some remains from the museum are still in the building. By integrating the exhibition into the old interior, like aquariums, fishing boats and historical information, we thereby contribute to keep the old spirits of the Icelandic maritime culture alive. That creates parallel worlds of historical and cultural space on the one hand, and the presence of art on the other.<\/p>\n For many years \u00d3lafsv\u00edk was one of the largest producers of salt cod or bacalhau. The building where STEYPA is being held was called \u201cSalth\u00fasi\u00f0\u201d (\u201cthe salt house\u201d) due to the large amounts of salt that were kept there. It was part of a fish freezing facility and factory for producing salt cod until it closed in around 1990. The house was acquired by new owners in 2001 and turned into a marine museum, which closed its doors two years ago.<\/p>\n See you in \u00d3lafsv\u00edk this summer!<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Open daily, 1 June until 31 August, \u00d3lafsv\u00edk, Sn\u00e6fellsnes The aim of STEYPA Photography Exhibition is to show a broad photographic perspective of Iceland in contrast to the more conventional type of landscape and nature pictures that are usually taken.
