Niceland is a joint project of the brothers David and Simon Zangger and originated in June 2013 in Iceland. The edition niceland 01-05 shows carefully selected excerpts from the vast mountain landscapes of the southern highlands of Iceland. The picturesque landscapes depicts unbelievable nuances in colour are abstracted by the white snow surface. The result is an almost graphic impression. The snowmelt leaves partially dark places behind where ash residue from the Eyjafjallajökull volcano becomes visible. The resulting surreal shading dissolves any sense of distance and size.
