„Ég heiti Vilborg Lóa Jónsdóttir og er 23 ára myndlistarnemi. Ég er að starfa hjá skapandi sumarstörfum Hafnarfjarðar. Ég verð með sýninguna Minningar 10.ágúst. það er málverkasýning, þar sem hvert málverk táknar eina minningu úr minni barnæsku og uppeldi úr Hafnarfiði. Sumar minningarnar eru sameiginlegar, og aðrar persónulegri mér. Markmið verkefnisins er að fá fólk til að hugsa til sinnar barnæsku og athuga hvað skilgreindi þeirra barnæsku. Er eitthvað sem við eigum sameiginlegt með öðrum sem ólust upp í sama umhverfi og þú eða ekki?“

„Ferlið á bakvið sýninguna var að miklu leiti að líta tilbaka og rifja upp minningar. Svo var það að undirbúa strigana, sem eru í laginu eins og rifur í efni og mála svo minningarnar á þá. Svo var einnig mikilvægur partur af undirbúningi fyrir sýninguna að ákveða sýningarstað, þar sem mig langaði að hafa sýninguna aðgengilega öllum, allann sólarhringinn. Svo fólk gæti komið og skoðað verkin óháð opnunartíma. Þegar ég ákvað að hafa verkin til sýnis í gluggum húsa á strandgötunni, þá þurfti ég að finna lausn á hvernig væri best að hengja upp málverkin. Allt þetta og fleira var hluti af ferlinu á bakvið sýninguna Minningar.“

About Creative Summer Jobs 2023

In the summer of 2021, the City of Hafnarfjörður, in collaboration with the town's youth centre, Hamarinn, decided to revive the “Creative Summer Jobs” project, which had been run in the summer of 2017. Individuals and groups aged 18-23 were also invited to submit ideas for creative projects in Hafnarfjörður. Selected groups were given the opportunity to work on various creative projects in different artistic fields that would also liven up the town's social life, delighting tourists and residents in one way or another. The staff of Creative Summer Jobs, run as part of the Hafnarfjörður Summer School, are tasked with bringing the town to life, making it more fun, beautiful and diverse with artistic and creative events. The projects are varied and appeal to different age groups and interests. Klara Ósk Elíasdóttir is the project manager for Creative Summer Jobs.

This year, there are nine diverse groups and individuals working as part of the creative summer jobs scheme, and they will be featured weekly over the summer.
