About Glacier Lament Asa Fanorenana

Ny Glacier Lament dia asa fanorenana momba ny fahaverezan'ny reniranon-dranomandry. Ny Pantone dia mitanisa karatra loko efatra ho an'ny manga reniranon-dranomandry, kanefa amin'ny reniranon-dranomandry marina, izany manga izany dia miovaova sy mavitrika. Rehefa levona ny reniranon-dranomandry, dia levona koa io manga miavaka io. Ny lokon-manga an'ireo reniranon-dranomandry any Alaska dia nalaina santionany sy nafangaro, avy eo notehirizina tao anaty tavoahangy fitaratra fakana indray enim-polo, nahantona teo ambonin'ny canvas iray. Isaky ny misy fisehoan-javatra fivakisan'ny ranomandry (glacier calving), dia latsaka ny tavoahangy iray. Tamin'ny fiafaran'ny fampirantiana, dia efa nilatsaka avokoa ireo tavoahangy enim-polo, ka niforona hoso-doko teo amin'ny canvas teo ambany.

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.
