Peace of Mind
Peace of Mind 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.
Ásmundur Sveinsson (1893-1982) was one of the pioneers of Icelandic sculpture. His artworks manifest the Icelandic narrative tradition, society and nature. Many of his works are accessible in public spaces in Reykjavík. It was the artist's opinion that art belonged to the masses.
