“If one looks at a glacier long enough,” the Icelandic author Halldor Laxness once wrote, “words cease to have any meaning on this earth.” In this episode of Art of Interference, we put Laxness’s observation to the test. We meet Montreal-based artist Jessica Houston and climate scientist Bruno Tremblay to discuss Letter to the Future, a 1,000-year project collaborating with the ice in Antarctica to invite reflections about our planet’s past, present, and future. We speak about the project’s ambitions, the pleasures and challenges of working in the arctic region, and what art—and words—can do to address the perils of climate change today.
