This short story, written by Andri Snær Magnason for our third
print edition, follows an architect in Reykjavík grappling with the
growing discord between his creativity and a capitalist reality.
Laying bare the ways narratives of control and human supremacy can
manifest in the physical objects we make, “Giantstone” asks us to
consider what new stories could begin to shape our inner and outer
worlds. Will we remain stuck in our humancentric philosophies, or
will our art come to reflect a way of life that keeps and cares for
the Earth? Read the short story. Watch the film The Last Ice Age,
by Adam Loften and Emmanuel Vaughan-Lee, the third in our four-part
Shifting Landscapes documentary film series. Illustration by Juan
Bernabeu. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
