Today, RÚV English is in Seyðisfjörður, in East Iceland.

An independent, non-profit organisation, Skaftfell Centre For The Visual Arts (www.skaftfell.is) is the principal visual art centre for East Iceland.

Located in a timber-frame house built by Norwegian fishermen in 1907, Skaftfell has long been an important meeting place for artists and the community, welcoming all visitors. On the first floor, the building houses a gallery with year-round changing exhibitions that are open to the public free of charge.

Darren went to Skaftfell to meet director Pari Stave and her colleague Kamilla Gylfadóttir, in this deeply creative corner of Iceland.
