The story behind the artwork

The varying shapes, sizes and designs of the buildings she encounters around the world are a constant source of inspiration for Icelandic Kristjana, who grew up in a sparse and rural landscape. The immersive architectural archways in these Explorer's Palace artworks have been inspired by Kristjana's recent travels to Rome as well as her ongoing work with London's iconic V&A museum. Enjoy the sense of depth and rich colour as you journey deep into these palaces of mystery. We invite you to explore the buildings that surround you; take in the sense of place, the space, the sounds and the way a new building can swallow you up or leave you wanting to fly into its recesses. 

Each artwork is made to order and will be completely unique, but within the overall theme as illustrated in the artwork photography.
