SÍM Gallery presents a contemporary art exhibition titled Fasabreytingar / Phase Change, featuring works by visual artists Freyja Eilíf and Tegan Moore. The showcase opens on July 10, running through July 19, and is part of an ongoing event series at Gallery Kannski that pairs Icelandic artists with international artists visiting the country.

Visitors exploring the current lineup can experience a dialogue between two distinct artistic practices focused on material instability, chemical processes, and physical memory. Freyja Eilíf presents her painting series Þröskuldsseyra, which draws inspiration from candle wax to shape tangible forms evoking melted and solidified traces. Additionally, her sculpture Vatnslogi is designed to disappear during the opening event itself.

Tegan Moore incorporates chemistry, research, found objects, and material aging into her pieces. Her works explore fragility, texture, and physical transformations shaped by environmental factors like moisture over time. Together, the artists' installations span the walls and floors, offering a subtle examination of material decay and construction.

For those planning a visit to see the exhibition before it closes on July 19, the space is open for two consecutive weekends from 14:00 to 16:00.
