Jódynur

Publication year 2022
Catalogue no. C.1887
Duration 14 minutes
Jódynur is inspired by an event that occurred on December 21st 2014,
when twelve horses were found dead in the pond Bessastaðatjörn. For some
reason they had run out on the pond which was covered in ice, that
turned out to be too thin for the herd, with the obvious consequences.
Jódynur is dedicated to these twelve purest of souls, may they rest in
piece.
“Jór” is an old Icelandic word for “horse”. In this sense “dynur” means “hoofbeat”.
During the performance a video of the horses being lifted from the pond is to be shown, muted and in slow motion.
