I am literally giving away my art prints. Not all of them of course. I am leaving a few prints all over Iceland for anyone to find. If you find one of my prints it’s yours to keep.

I’ve already left three in three different parts of Iceland and I will be leaving more in the next few weeks and months, maybe even years.

Leaving art

Since 2014 I have worked exclusively with a rare type of Polaroid film (Polaroid 100 – often referred to as Peel-apart films). My process is both analog and digital, with the Polaroid picture itself, along with tit’s counterpart film being analog. I need to process the film partly in a chemical bath, and I also add some secret chemical ingredients afterward for extra colors and textures.

Finders keepers

After that, the digital process is fairly simple where I simply scan the negatives and have them digitally printed onto aluminum plates. There is no photoshopping or digital processing involved other than a quick fix of levels and curves.

Art doesn’t always have to cost an arm, a leg, and a kidney with the sole purpose of illuminating the everyday grayness of the living room. With this project, I want to deepen the picture’s purpose with the fact that whoever comes to own it already has some connection to the place.

I absolutely love abandoned farms and old boats. I rarely catch both in one photo

I want to bring my art full circle. I leave the prints in or close to the places they were originally taken at, or in places that have at least some connection to the original spot. Like you can see in the above videos for example. Both those photos were taken at the same abandoned farm, but only one of them was left there while the other one was left in another abandoned farm.

I like to include people in my photos from time to time

I like the idea of art returning home. Especially because much of it is of abandoned farms, and I feel I am giving them some kind of life again, giving them a new purpose.

This one will sail no more

My dream is to continue the project in Lebanon. I have only been there once but after Iceland, it is the most beautiful country I have seen, and the only other country where I have felt inspired to shoot my Polaroid films.

There are literally hundreds of abandoned farm houses in Iceland, some are traditional turf houses

The only residence here now are the Icelandic horses
