Gunnuhver is located in the centre of the Reykjanes UNESCO Global Geopark where the Mid-Atlantic Ridge rises from the ocean. There are around one hundred mud geothermal springs in the area that are ever changing in the unique landscape. Gunnuhver is named after Guðrún Önundardóttir who lived in Reykjanes over 300 years ago. Reykjanes is also home to geothermal power plants as the geothermal energy is abundant in the area. Soundscapes captured from videos of the mud springs serve as inspiration for 3d drawings that are then printed in various types of clay, forming a cluster of sculptures. In the printing process, conditions are created where the clay determines the texture and final result. The audio of the field recordings are looped together and are amplified during playback by the acoustics in the exhibition space.
