Katrin Fridriks (born 1974 in Reykjavík, Iceland), is an abstract painter.
Fusing the natural energies of her native Iceland with an explosive, however organic, abstract expressionism often filtered through painterly installations, Katrin Fridriks explores speed, gravity, and growth along with the interaction of man and nature in different media.
One of her creations is installed at the Nautical stadium in Nîmes, but a section of her work connecting with land art has also been an important element in her process.
Her painterly creations are often integrated into paintscapes, site-specific installation that exceed the limits of painting traditionally conceived.
Fridriks has also received commissions from Pictures on Wall in 2012, Michael Goss Foundation in 2011, Ralph Lauren in 2010, Bacardi Martini, Land Rover as well as the French Ministry for Youth & Sports in 2007.
