The Edge of Time centres around geological imagination, human/more-than-human entanglement, the edge, melancholy, and time. This is explored through two specific northern sites; the peripheral Arctic archipelago of Svalbard, located approximately 1000km south of the North Pole and Jostedalsbreen in Norway, the largest glacier in continental Europe. Bothsite's glaciers operate as unique archives for Earth’s climate and proxies for tracing environmental changes. Hannah Jenkins’ poem 'Valley' further evokes ways of seeing and sensing that go beyond human ideas of scale and time.
