Glacial blue ice from the Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland) Ice Sheet will be transformed into a reverential sculpture, a reliquary, traveling the world as a frozen ambassador, representing the interests of the Arctic environment and the Indigenous peoples who reside there.

Josef Tarrak



Josef, artistically known simply as ‘Tarrak’ is a Greenlandic Inuit actor and rapper and the face of Kalaallit Nunaat’s (Greenland’s) independence movement. Photographed in his hotel room amongst his recoridng equipment. Finalising his 3rd LP.


More and more young people are demanding independence from Denmark. But the melting of Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland) makes its mineral-rich land and strategic shipping lanes more and more desirable to other countries. If Denmark leaves, who will replace it? The Greenlandic Inuit people? Or someone else?
