On this week's Cultural Frontline we explore the sounds of nature with Iceland鈥檚 all-female radical performance art collective, the Icelandic Love Corporation. For over two decades, their art has engaged audiences on topics such as the over-sexualisation of women and reflections around aging and the female body.
