Spessi (aka Sigurbor Hallbjornsson), hailing from Iceland, has photographed his home extensively. Among his major projects is Bensin, an encyclopedic documentation of the all-important gasoline store, and connection to the outer world for remote Icelanders. Additionally, Spessi has recorded out-of-the-way vacation spots, campsites and portraits of Icelanders. His lush prints are startlingly vivid, and their large scale makes them remarkably painterly.
