A performance where the Icelandic pancake tradition and "women's work" are intertwined. The pancakes are used as a material for various activities, such as wiping and scrubbing, folding, mending and even relaxing with a face mask.

A very thin round shape, fragrance fills the space, hands move in repetition,

Measure, stir, pour.

A smooth and thin mixture, scooped over a hot surface covered in butter. It slowly browns and carries with it this beautiful scent that evokes feelings and memories of habits, of good times. The act lives in the body.

Measure, stir, pour, bake, turn.

In the repetition, a certain stillness is created, a dialogue between hand movements. The ceremony is a pattern, fragile and temporary, but unites people through taste, memory and shared experiences.

Measure, stir, pour, bake, turn, serve.

The performance will result in an installation that will be on display in Gerðarsafn from 29th of August to 4th of September, during the museum's opening hours.

The exhibition will be open during the museum's regular opening hours.
