Iceland, the Isle of Artists • FRANCE 24 English

FRANCE24, 22 Jul 2022
Unpronounceable volcanoes, Björk, Vikings, Game of Thrones – they're just some of the things you might think of relating to Iceland. But this tiny remote and fascinating island, in the middle of the Atlantic ocean with a population of 360,000 people, is one of the most creative nations in the world. Maybe it’s the isolation, or perhaps the inspiration from nature or its centuries’ old folklore legends. Eve Jackson is in the land of ice and fire to find out why Iceland has an exceptional and disproportionate amount of artists.
