This series is inspired by the many instances of searching for new lands in that can be found in history and mythology. In these stories, islands often function as both a promise of a mysterious utopia and as an unknown to be brought forth into the known by the process of exploration. Or they are places outside the norm that people journey to for healing or answers. Whatever the reason, a person who visits one of these islands is not the same afterwards.
In our current climate, islands are endangered by rising sea levels. If we lose more and more literal islands, what will happen to the mythological and metaphorical islands in our collective memories and imaginations?
