Valgerður Sigurðardóttir ‘I must drink all the water’

Valgerður Sigurðardóttir ‘I must drink all the water’

End May 2025, Posture Editions presents the new book with the Icelandic artist Valgerður Sigurðardóttir (1992, Reykjavik): I must drink all the water.

Vala—shortened from Valgerður—shows drawings on paper and an extensive series of ceramic she made from 2023 till now. 

Koen Sels writes an implicit text on the formative power of dreams and drawing. Dreaming/drawing as a way to gain insight into our confusing existence, a “primitive” space of unfinishedness that is in some ways realer than what we consider real, the fixed, finalised routine ...

The book coincides with the artist’s first institutional exhibition at Ásmundarsalur in Reykjavík (opening 28.06.2025) and will also be available at Keteleer Gallery in the context of Antwerp Art Weekend (29.05-01.06).
