Icelandic Plane Wreck is a contemplative photographic series centred around the remains of the US Navy DC-3 aircraft that crash-landed on Sólheimasandur beach in 1973. Surrounded by a vast, black volcanic desert and often cloaked in mist, snow, or low light, the wreck becomes more than a relic—it transforms into a symbol of isolation, time, and resilience. Through atmospheric compositions and subtle shifts in natural lighting, this series captures the haunting beauty of the site. The stark contrast between the silver-grey fuselage and the surrounding monochrome or muted landscape evokes a sense of timelessness, as though the plane has fused with the Icelandic terrain. The wreck, stripped of its function and forgotten by time, now serves as an abstract sculpture—weathered by wind, snow, and salt. The photographs highlight its texture, emptiness, and presence in the endless openness, allowing viewers to feel both the stillness and the scale of the Icelandic wilderness. Icelandic Plane Wreck is not about the crash—it is about what remains. It is about silence, memory, and the dialogue between man-made ruin and the enduring force of nature.
