Ólöf Björg

Ólöf Björg lærði í málaradeild Listaháskóla Íslands og Háskólanum í Granada. Ólöf Björg fæst við tilfinngar og gjörninga.

Þegar Ólöf Björg hefst handa við að skapa byrjar hún oft á dansi við sérstök hljóð sem kemur henni í samband við hennar innri röddu sem velur liti, form og línur fyrir málverkið.

Skynjun er mikilvæg í verkum hennar, sem og heilun. Ólöf Björg hefur haldið fjölmargar einkasýningar og tekið þátt í mörgum samsýningum.
