Art, like life and like nature, always has this unknowable element. It can be magical, and it can be dangerous. Born in 1992, Saga Unn is an Icelandic artist who works primarily with installation. Saga graduated with a BFA in Fine art from Lasalle College of the Art in 2016 before going on to complete another BA in Japanese Studies at the University of Iceland in 2021 (including a year of Chinese language courses), after becoming more and more interested in language, translation and the written word’s relationship with art. For Saga the creative process is a natural even animal compulsion, and much of the artists output are meditations on the relationship between nature and the human world and the mysteries and contradiction that persist despite humans’ attempts to know, explain and categorize the world around them.
