The Making of a Mural by Siggi Eggertsson for Iceland Design Centre



The Making of a Mural by Siggi Eggertsson for Iceland Design Centre

Graphic designer Siggi Eggertsson has designed his first full-wall mural for Iceland Design Centre. 
In place of a traditional sign post, we wanted to add something interesting to the Reykjavik cityscape – 
known for its beautiful urban art – and to put the Iceland Design Centre on the map.

SWR took care of the painting and there were plenty of curious passers-by, 

peeking over the shoulders of the painters. 
In the afternoon, we invited our friends to join in a party to celebrate summer – 
and our new, beautiful wall painting.

Take a look at the mural in the making!

Bjork : Mutual Core



In "Mutual Core," recorded by Björk for her seventh album Biophilia, the earth's geology
is a metaphor for human relationships. Eruptions and earthquakes, the building of continents,
the formation of mountain ranges and oceanic trenches: all are powerful signs
of the earth's structure and mechanics. Represented musically by the violent interruption
of block rocking beats, video director Andrew Thomas Huang here depicts the push and pull
of tectonic plates with anthropomorphized rocks, lava and sand encircling Björk in dance,
their psychedelic innards resembling the frayed strands of a Fritz Haeg rug.
