If you wonder what the history of this place is and will be, ask Galya Morrell. Her blog is http://galya-morrell.blogspot.com/. In short, here is what Galya says, “There is a remote island 70 km north of Uummannaq called Ubekendt Island – Unknown Island. Here, in a village of Illorsuit, some 75 years ago lived Rockwell Kent. He came here to live, paint and get away from it all. Uummannaq Music followed his steps.”
