The two acclaimed artists share a love of book making, and of the unique way that photography merges reality and fiction.<\/p>\n<p>In this interview Roni Horn introduces Dayanita Singh to her projects &#8216;a.k.a.&#8217;, &#8216;bird&#8217;, and &#8216;drawings&#8217;, and explains some of the thoughts behind them. Horn talks about identity, gender and sexuality, and wanting to escape defenition. How the mink is a &#8220;homicidal maniac&#8221;. How ravens have a lot of personality. How she likes the idea of a mask which is identical to the original. And she explains why she likes to have everything in pairs: &#8220;When you have one, you have one. When you have two, you have the space between, plus, you&#8217;ve got difference. And difference is where everything opens up.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Roni Horn (b.1955) is an American visual artist and writer from New York. Her work encompasses sculpture, drawing, photography, language, and site-specific installations. Since her first encounter with Iceland as a young arts graduate visiting on a fellowship from Yale, 30 years ago, the work of Roni Horn has been hugely inspired by the island&#8217;s singular geography, geology, climate and culture.
