The Island was included in the exhibition RETHINK: Idea, Output, Exchange which sought to further the debate about the function and role of arts practitioners within the current economic and political climate.

The work combines themes of protest, the group and self-organising in one meta-narrative, each decision in its production made by a throw of the dice.
