Jon Thor Birgisson's pieces are on display next month

An exhibition of art by Riceboy Sleeps - aka Sigur Ros guitarist/singer Jon Thor Birgisson and artist Alex Somers - will go on display at The Agency Gallery on London's Cremer Street from April 10 to May 17 2008.

The duo's artistic method involves making drawings on the pages of old books, before photographing them and placing the resulting pictures in worn picture frames.

The pair have also made videos using Super8 footage, creating a number of 'dream-like sequences'.

For more information about the exhibition and directions to the gallery, see The Agency Gallery website.
