  The island of ten thousand waterfalls is the land of volcanoes, geysers, the
  largest glacier in Europe, and extraordinary landscapes. It is a land of
  Vikings, with severe climatic conditions in the long winter months.

<p>
  The practice of Heartfulness Meditation over the past decade has changed my
  view of nature, influencing my photographs. How was I going to discover and
  approach this country, a paradise for photographers, but unknown to me? I
  relied on my heart, knowing that it would guide me throughout my stay, as it
  does in my daily life.

  The answer was the light, so particular and ephemeral, that sculpts the unique
  landscapes, bringing to them an almost supernatural side.

<p>
  As much as I felt the spiritual energy during my various stays in India, in
  Iceland it is the telluric energy that dominates. It’s a bit like traveling
  back in time, with volcanoes and lava flows, geysers, and black sand on the
  beaches. But there is also the hope of light that illuminates the darkness. At
  least that’s what I tried to express in my pictures.
