Sól Ey (b. 1996) is an Icelandic transdisciplinary artist based between Copenhagen and The Hague. Working across performance, interactive installation, and instrument design, she creates immersive environments that combine sound, movement, light, space, and the body. Using DIY electronics, sensors, and self-built wearable instruments, her practice explores how technology can choreograph behaviour, perception, and social relations.
Sól Ey’s work has been presented at festivals such as Rewire, Sónar+D, Reykjavík Arts Festival, Nordic Music Days, and MINU Festival. She has been artist-in-residence at Instrument Inventors Initiative, Sound Art Lab, and Inter Arts Centre, and a research fellow at the Academy for Theatre and Digitality. From 2024-26, she is an associated artist with Ensemble Modelo62. Her work has been supported by artist salaries from the Icelandic Arts Council (2023, 2026) and the Danish Composers’ Society through the Nye Veje working grant (2024). She studied composition at the Royal Conservatoire The Hague and the Institute of Sonology.
Alongside her artistic practice, she is curator at platform BUNKER in Copenhagen, an exhibition space dedicated to immersive art forms, and founder of RASK, an Icelandic collective working across art and technology.
