Brynds̕ Snb̆jr̲nsdt̤tir and Mark Wilson have been collaborating since 2001. Their work, characteristically rooted in the north, explores issues of history, culture and the environment in relation to the individual and his/her sense of belonging or detachment. The most recent projects use the relationship between humans and selected animals, as a springboard to posit questions on cultural and individual location between 'domesticity' and 'wilderness'. Their work is installation and process-based, utilizing photography and video.--http://www.snaebjornsdottirwilson.com/index.html

"Big Mouth - an installation in Tramway 2, Glasgow (April 16th-May 31st 2004) The work used the example of the thylacine or Tasmanian tiger to examine human behavioural response to the unfamiliar, to fear and how acts of identification by means of comparison with what is familiar, can often be expediential, fateful and irredeemable."--http://www.snaebjornsdottirwilson.com/bmresearch.html
