About Glacier Lament Fonksyon Prensipal: Enstalasyon Atistik

Tèks Liv: Glacier Lament se yon enstalasyon atistik ki pale sou pèt glasye yo. Pantone bay kat kat koulè pou ble glasye, men nan vrè glasye yo, ble sa a varyab e dinamik. Kòm glasye yo ap disparèt, ble inik sa a tou ap disparèt. Yo te pran ekantiyon ton ble glasye yo nan Alaska e melanje yo, epi mete yo nan swasant flakon vè rekikle ki sispann anwo yon twal (canvas). Chak fwa yon evènman kalvaj glasye rive, yon flakon te tonbe. Nan fen ekspozisyon an, tout swasant flakon yo te fin tonbe, sa ki te fòme yon penti sou twal ki te anba a.

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.
