Rhian Collings

Over a nomadic decade, I hopped from island to island, drawn to these self-contained spaces and their stories. From Sardinia to Reunion Island, from Haida Gwaii to Cape Verde and back to my native British Isles, I worked as a teacher and translator, studied literature, learnt languages, shared cold swims, sweaty hikes and long philosophical conversations.

A series of coincidences then led me to Northern Norway, where I have lived for the past three years… on an island, of course! Here, I draw inspiration from the rugged Arctic archipelagos and channel my creative energy into my work as a documentary screenwriter and creative producer.
