Preserving Iceland’s natural & cultural heritage in the face of rapid environmental change.
Our mission is both scientific and profoundly human: to document the transformations wrought by climate change and to ensure that future generations inherit a record of what was once real. ARKÆV calls for a renewed commitment to authenticity and environmental stewardship by challenging notions of media, experience, and memory.
Preserving Memory Through Data
ARKÆV pioneers the collection and preservation of Iceland’s ecological and sensory data, ensuring that natural experiences are archived for future study. By documenting shifting landscapes, disappearing species, and environmental changes, we build a living record of Iceland’s evolving natural heritage.
AI-Driven Sensory Interpretation
Through advanced AI models trained exclusively on Icelandic environmental data, ARKÆV transforms raw scientific information into tangible, visual artifacts. By merging technology with artistic interpretation, we generate dynamic representations of nature and experience that challenge how we perceive reality.
A Living Archive for the Future
Our research-driven approach ensures that each contribution—whether from scientists, artists, or the public—enriches an ever-growing archive of Icelandic sensory experiences. This evolving collection informs climate studies, artistic exploration, and public engagement, shaping the future of environmental understanding.
