About Glacier Lament Keunstynstallaasje
Glacier Lament is in keunstynstallaasje oer it ferlies fan gletsjers. Pantone jout fjouwer kleurkaarten foar gletsjerblau, dochs is dit blau yn wiere gletsjers wikseljend en dynamysk. As gletsjers ferdwine, ferdwynt ek dit unike blau. De blautinten fan gletsjers yn Alaska waarden bemuonstere en mongen, en dêrnei bewarre yn santich weromwûne glêzen fleskes dy't ophongen wiene boppe in canvas. Elke kear as der in gletsjerôfkalving barde, foel der ien fleske del. Oan it ein fan de eksposysje wiene alle santich fleskes fallen, en foarme se in skildering op it canvas derûnder.

- Unique Properties
- There are four color cards in PANTONE for glacier blue. However, in real glaciers, this blue color is variable and dynamic. As glaciers are disappearing, this unique blue is also disappearing. We sampled and blended the blue color from glaciers in Alaska and hung them in recycled glass vials. When one glacier calving happened, one color vial fell down. At the end of the exhibition, all 60 vials fell down, forming a painting on the canvas beneath.

- Inspiration
- Glaciers are sentinels of climate change. They are the most visible evidence of global warming today. This series of works embodies the stunning beauty, rapid change, fragility, destructive power, and magnificence of glaciers. At the same time, they challenge the audience with the dramatic, irreversible ecological damages from climate change.
