TUKKON TABLE in brass in a river in Iceland
TUKKON · Highlands

Iceland.

Brass, water, steam.

TUKKON in the Icelandic highlands. No studio, just the place.

No set, no artificial light. Just the piece, the warm water and the steam rising from the ground. Metal, shown where nature is at its roughest.

01 · Getting there

The last stretch.

The last stretch on foot. Snow on the slopes, wind, a narrow path. The piece is carried.

Steam rising from a valley in the Icelandic highlands
02 · The valley

Steam.

Here the ground breathes. Steam rises from the rock, the river is warm, the air heavy with sulphur.

03 · In the river

In the water.

TUKKON on the stones, washed by the river. The brass reflects water and sky. With every hour the light on its surface changes.

From the valley up onto the ice. Warm metal against cold white.

Northern lights.

On the last night, the northern lights above the camp. TUKKON stays outside, still until morning.
