Description
Horses of Iceland: In the Land of Fire and Ice is photographer Guadalupe Laiz’s second book celebrating her love for Iceland and its horses. In this follow-up book, Laiz widens her lens to not only capture the horses, but to showcase the rugged, harsh, and unpredictable environment that has shaped the character of these animals. It is the interaction between the horses and their epic terrain that tells the whole story, with incredibly beautiful images that exceed the imagination. Laiz’s colour and black-and-white portraits of the majestic Icelandic horses are poetry in motion. For this second publication, Laiz undertook a more ambitious production, collaborating with local horse breeders to capture the horses in iconic and breathtaking locations—from the famous Skógafoss blanketed with snow to the active Fagradalsfjall volcano, and galloping across black sand beaches and glaciers, and with waterfalls, tundra, and fierce ocean backdrops. Laiz’s work invites viewers to experience an intimate connection with the mystical horses, as she skillfully juxtaposes their wild power and inherent softness, creating images with a profound sense of emotion. Horses of Iceland: In the Land of Fire and Ice includes a special note signed by the artist.
