Roni Horn: Mother, Wonder (Ísland: To Place 11), Steidl, Göttingen, 2023

English text. ISBN 978-3-96999-185-5.

Mother, Wonder is the eleventh volume in Roni Horn’s ongoing To Place series, initiated in 1989 and conceived as a body of work existing entirely through books. The volume focuses on Landbrot in southern Iceland, whose unusual geology Horn approaches as a landscape suspended somewhere between physical fact and imagined territory. Across the series, Iceland becomes a changing index of place, identity and repeated experience.

Horn has travelled regularly through Iceland since 1975, making its landscape, weather, water and isolation central to her practice. Her books are not secondary records of sculptures or exhibitions but primary works in which photographs, sequences and physical design produce their own encounters with place.
