Leiðsögn Hildigunnar Birgisdóttur um sýninguna Þetta er mjög stór tala (Commerzbau). Sýningin ögrar á gáskafullan hátt fyrirfram gefnum hugmyndum um fegurð, virði og notagildi. Hildigunnur Birgisdóttir er kunn fyrir að gefa hinu smáa gaum í listsköpun sinni og varpa gagnrýnu ljósi á hnattræn framleiðslu- og dreifingarkerfi, sem og hið undarlega lífshlaup varningsins sem þessi kerfi skapa. Í verkum sínum dregur hún athyglina að litlum, einnota hlutum sem gjarnan eru fjöldaframleiddir fylgifiskar neyslumenningarinnar: umbúðum, verðmiðum, merkingum og útstillingareiningum.

Artist talk – Hildigunnur Birgisdóttir
Artist talk about the exhibition That’s a Very Large Number (Commerzbau). The exhibition was commissioned for the Icelandic Pavilion at the 60th International Art Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia 2024, but will now be at the National Gallery of Iceland.
Hildigunnur is known for her nuanced artistic practice, which looks critically at the worldwide systems of production and distribution and the strange lives of the products they create. Her works draw attention to the small, disposable objects that are often the mass-produced accessories of material culture: packing materials, price tags, signage, and systems of display. She casts these objects in new roles, changing their value and meaning entirely as they are experienced outside of their original function.
