Paintings from the Faroe Islands
Jón Magnus
Joensen
Light, colour and landscape – expressive painting between the familiar and the abstract.
Pictured: Morning in Tórshavn, 2025
“The palette is full of colour, and the light plays in many ways.”
About the work
The Faroe Islands are an inexhaustible source of motifs. If you go closer, just a small spot, a place, a village or a town can be just as inexhaustible. The light – and with it the colours – is constantly changing, on the same day and through the seasons.
