The Days of the Child Prodigy are Over is a project that began in 2011. It started with a dialogue between Rakel McMahon and Bergpora Snaebjornsdottir, a.k.a Wunderkind Collective, where one used drawings and the other texts to communicate. The aim being to explore the idea of the genius from the point of view of individual experience and its implicit absurdity – the conflict that arises when a person tries to search for meaning in a universe he or she can never understand the inherent meaning of.
