To Skip a Sinking Stone is an atlas that maps the relationship between Greenland’s ice sheet and the intricate tapestry of life it sustains, revealing a landscape quietly working to reclaim itself. Greenland is often seen in the United States and much of the western world as a desolate expanse of ice. This project challenges that notion. A living organism in its own right, the ice sheet exerts a significant influence over its immediate surroundings and, increasingly, the world at large. Life teems all over this vast and complex island despite the challenging terrain. This paradox shapes the identity of Greenland and its people. The ice sheet has a continuous presence even when out of sight, and through this presence, it reveals an understanding that adaptation is not a choice, but a condition of living here.
