“Spring Melts the Snow” is an abstract work by Snædís Högnadóttir, inspired by nature as the cold earth awakens in spring. The rough textures of the piece evoke the moment when the soil rises from beneath a thin, melting layer of snow, and the earthy tones push their way through. Roots awaken, and branches stretch upward toward the light. The grasses stand taller, swaying gently in the spring breeze. Everything that lay dormant comes alive again, filled with a sense of magic.
