About Glacier Lament Karê Hunerî

Şînahiya Cemedan şênberek hunerî ye li ser windabûna cemedanan (glacier). Pantone çar kارتên reng ji bo şîna cemedan rêz dike, lê belê li cemedanên rastîn ev şîn guherbar û dînamîk e. Gava cemedan winda dibin, ev şîna bêhempa jî winda dibe. Tonên şîn ên cemedanên Alaska hatin nimûnekirin û tevlihev kirin, paşê di şêst şûşeyên biçûk ên şûşeya vegerandî de hatin hilanîn ku li ser tabloyekê hilawistî bûn. Her carê bûyerek qelibîna cemedan (calving) diqewimî, şûşeyek dikeve xwarê. Di dawiya pêşangehê de her şêst şûşe ketibûn, û wêneyek li ser tabloya jêr çêkiribûn.

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.
