You may not have heard of Harpa Einarsdottir, but you may be familiar with her alter ego Ziska Zun. An Icelandic illustrator (and stylist, fashion designer, multimedia artist and farmer), she is a stupendously talented artist with a flair for the dramatic.
Ziska Zun's recent solo exhibition 'Skulls & Halos' is filled with dark, sinister artwork with a tribal twist. Ranging from painted canvas to painted bones, her describes her work as "all about our endless inner fight between right and wrong [...] it's my way to find inner balance and say farewell to the past."
