Vertaling - IJslands-Engels - from www.art.is

In the beginning of the ninth decade Ragnheiður put etching aside because of the damage this technique causes to health. Yet, that didn't come to end her art because of the big carbon drawings she had performed the last years, offering both self-portraits and more powerful methods corresponding to the development of her always abstract imagination. Ragnheiður is maybe first and foremost a graphic designer, creating breathing-space and wide open spaces as is all in darkness. The texture of the carbon drawings reminds a lot about silk that flickers and marks the past and the future, and wraps around the onlooker in dancing mirages of light and shadow.
