OCTOBER 5 & 6, 10AM - 4PM AT STATION ON THE GREEN, CREEMORE ONTARIO
Come experience the fragile magic of the arctic with your eyes, ears and soul.
The Ice Project draws attention to the state of crisis in our Arctic regions, in a language that is authentic to the artist. This solo, immersive installation offers a sensory, multi-media experience that aims to reconnect the viewer with our fragile environment and inspire responsible stewardship and climate action.
Included in this body of work are original oil paintings, a suspended 3 dimensional work on frosted mylar, light boxes, and archival audio sound clips of the Arctic environment courtesy of the Macaulay Library. These sounds include melting ice, a calving glaciers, icebergs and a Bowhead whale, a species native to the Arctic.
