Book

Island Fiction is a kind of a ticket to Surtsey, a remote island that is off-limits for general visits and can only be accessed for scientific research. Within its pages, you'll discover both artwork and the travelouge of Þorgerður Ólafsdóttir, who was granted special permission to visit the island and capture it through the medium of art. Additionally, the book contains insightful scientific essays authored by women in the fields of archaeology and environmental studies, shedding light on their unique encounters with the island.

Esseyja er eins konar farmiði til Surtseyjar, eyjunnar í fjarska sem enginn má heimsækja nema í vísindalegum tilgangi. Í bókinni má finna myndlistarverk og ferðasögu Þorgerðar Ólafsdóttur sem fékk leyfi til að heimsækja eyjuna og skrásetja með aðferðum myndlistarinnar. Þar eru einnig fræðigreinar eftir konur frá fræða- og (umhverfis)vísindasviði sem hafa kynnst eyjunni meðal annars út frá sinni grein.

Book

“I feel like something has been taken away from me – something I’m not sure I ever had.“

 Glingurfugl is a graphic novel which lyrically and quietly tells the story of two birds, Margrét and Eva, on a journey to retrieve their memories and discover who they really are in a mysterious world that is hostile to birds.

 Glingurfugl is published in 200 copies, comprising 64 pages of watercolours and ink drawings. It is a standalone sequel to Gombri (2016), a graphic novel by the same author, and introduces new characters to the multifaceted world of Gombri.

„Mig grunar að eitthvað hafi verið tekið frá mér – eitthvað sem ég veit ekki hvort ég hafi átt.“

Myndasagan Glingurfugl fjallar á ljóðrænan og hljóðlátan hátt um ferðalag tveggja fugla, Margrétar og Evu, til að endurheimta minningar þeirra og uppgötva eigið sjálf í dularfullum heimi sem er óvinveittur fuglum.

Glingurfugl er gefinn út í 200 eintökum og inniheldur 64 blaðsíður af vatnslita- og blekmyndum. Bókin er sjálfstætt framhald myndasögunnar Gombra (2016) eftir sama höfund – en í Glingurfugli eru nýjar persónur kynntar til leiks í þessum margslungna heimi Gombra.

On 24 October, all women in Iceland, including immigrant women, are encouraged to stop work, both paid and unpaid. For the whole day, women (and non-binary people) will strike, to demonstrate the importance of their contribution to society. Women will not go to work on this day. For this one day, we expect husbands, fathers, brothers and uncles to take on the responsibilities related to family and home, for example: preparing breakfast and lunch box, remembering birthdays of relatives, buying a present for your mother-in-law, making a dentist appointment for your child, etc.
