Kristjana S. Williams at the Half Moon

Northernline Arts presents a captivating exhibition of prints by Icelandic-born artist Kristjana S Williams at The Half Moon Freehouse. Known internationally for her magical universes that intricately layer nature-inspired imagery, Kristjana's prints fuse Victorian engravings with vividly exotic botanicals, fauna, and vintage cartography.
