The Faroe Islands - The Land of Maybe

The Land of Maybe is a landmark project documenting the Faroe Islands, an archipelago in the North Atlantic by land, sea and air. Taking its name from an old Scottish name for the islands, the project has taken place over several years and journeys, and attempts to explore the lives of the people who live in this remote landscape. The Faroe Islands is known primarily for the annual Grind (the killing of pilot whales), and the protests of groups such as Sea Shepherd, however the wider narrative of the lives of those who live here is not so well known. This is the first project of its type in the islands, and aims to tell the story of those who make their home here, what motivates them, and why they choose to be part of a unique and vibrant culture on the edge of the North Atlantic.
