This is my project from my residency in Fljotstunga, Iceland. It comprises paper boats, floating in rural Iceland, including in an ice and lava cave. It’s about lots of things – human fragility in the harsh landscape, the sheer aburdity of placing paper in this extreme environment, journeys – literal and emotional, displacement, etc. It is also a very personal and emotional project about me, and the absurdity of being in this world at all with my particular disabilities. In the end this almost morphed into a performative piece, because the conditions were so difficult, that placing and photographing the boats became an exercise in bloody-mindedness and battle against the extreme wind and cold.
