The Arctic Circle
To mark the location where the Arctic Circle transects the island, the Orbis et Globus (Circle and Sphere) was commissioned and installed in 2017. The artwork, which is a 3-meter concrete sphere, was designed by Kristinn E. Hrafnsson in collaboration with Studio Grandi. The orb is moved once a year to reflect the changing position of the Arctic circle. The 3.7-km walk from the harbor to the Arctic Circle is a three-hour round trip.
