Roni Horn - You Are The Weather (1997)
A scarce and brilliant book from American artist Roni Horn. This 1997 book is Horn's first photographic series featuring 100 close-up shots of the same woman, Margret, in a variety of Icelandic geothermal pools. Roni Horn first traveled to Iceland in 1975, at the age of twenty. Since then she has regularly visited the Nordic volcanic island, which has acquired particular importance for her work. The isolated setting, with its uniquely rugged landscape and volatile weather, is a powerful source of inspiration, reflected in some of Horn’s central works and in a series of books. She describes Iceland as “Big enough to get lost on. Small enough to find myself”. The one hundred photographs that makeup You Are the Weather were taken in July and August 1994.
