Iris Fridriksdottir

I was born and raised in Iceland and have the privilege of having lived and studied in most of the Nordic Countries. Exploring and learning from different ways of living, understanding and in expression of art.

My academic background is a Master in Fine Arts from Holland and Iceland.

At the moment I live on the border between Denmark and Germany, with a rich facetted nature and two cultures within easy reach.

I am resident art teacher at Sønderjyllands Kunstskole (SouthDenmark ArtSchool) and Haderslev Kunstskole (Haderslev ArtSchool).

I work in a varied field of freelance projects (schoolchildren, churches, municipalities, private investors) - please feel welcome to contact me for ideas. Kindest regards - Iris
