The Ásmundur Sweater

KringUM with wooden pearls

SkiptUM with wooden pearls
The UM line of products is constantly evolving. Its distinction derives from its focus on feasting, celebration, light, food, warmth and aroma. What distinguishes the product line is the production process which includes working with two different elements which interconnect in the product. These elements are clay and wood. SkiptUM is useful in multiple ways.
A candle-holder becomes a vase for flowers and a breakfast plate becomes a party plate. This inspires a certain playfulness on behalf of the user who may use the articles as decoration or items of practical use in festive circumstances as well as in daily life. The novelty of the articles derives from their playfulness as well as the use of materials in their construction.

Peace of Mind
Peace of Mind&nbsp;is a small zen park that brings Ásmundarsafn into people's homes. It is also a way to bring art to the people as sculptor Ásmundur Sveinsson so passionately wanted. The house is in its original form - a small model at the concept stage where the possibilities are unlimited. The zen park provides an opportunity to find peace from modern stimuli.

Dome

Monument to the Unknown Bureaucrat
Monument to the Unknown Bureaucrat&nbsp;by the artist Magnús Tómasson is one of the best known outdoor works in Reykjavík.
The artwork was&nbsp;acquired by the City of Reykjavík in 1993. The idea behind the work stems from the artist's fascination with memorials to unknown soldiers, found in many cities throughout the militarized world. "Iceland has no army, but plenty of bureaucrats," says the artist on the work's original conception, "and I felt that the foot soldiers of government administration, those nameless, faceless agents who nevertheless exert great influence on the destinies of regular people, deserved a monument, too."

Shadow
The shadow of Ásmundur Sveinsson's sculpture&nbsp;Giantess&nbsp;(1948) turned into cast iron. The giantess becomes a shadow on a table, a plate under hot vessels. Ásmundur said that trolls reminded him of mountains and that the mountains were trolls. The interplay of man and nature in Ásmundur's work takes on countless images and is a source of endless ideas and emotions.

Ásmundur Sveinsson's 1936–37 sculpture entitled&nbsp;The Water Carrier&nbsp;shows a barefoot woman carrying two buckets of water. Her legs are strong and reflect stability and grounding. Sturdy body parts - hands, fingers, feet and toes - characterize many of Ásmundur's works and are reminiscent of the power of the workers. Concrete legs that step on the table carry candles to illuminate sweet moments. Ásmundur drew inspiration from the workers to sculpt the foot.
