A picture can be viewed in many ways – aesthetically, analytically or emotionally.

I sell a book (incl. Audio-CD) with 44 "Pictures - and their sounds" - all sounds, which are "shown" here in Djúpavík and during the exhibition in Eppelheim, Germany. The book is available in a limited edition of 50 pieces and costs € 25 or kr. 4.000 plus postage. If you are interested in purchasing the book please send me an e-mail to info@clausinisland.de - thank you!
