The exhibition tells a story of Optimistic Bína and her associates in the Association of Gala Enthusiasts.
Artist is the Icelandic Edda Mac:
Optimistic Bína arrives bearing gifts, Jafet the Astronaut shows up in the wrong costume, and the Captain tells the same joke for the third year running. They are all members of The Association of Gala Enthusiasts which convenes every second Saturday of February each year. This time around they had their portraits embroidered to celebrate the occasion, and they will be on display in the Nordic House 17th-22nd of April (more about the exhibition here).
