Behind the Design
Press Kit
Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.
- Unique Properties
- A slowly melting sculpture performance, where an industrial robot carves a large ice block to a computational lens that refracts spotlight to graphics on the wall, spelling “+2℃”, an ominous warning of global temperature rise. The artwork juxtaposes the high tech optimism with transient global challenges that know no bounds. The intervention only speeds up the process.

High power LED flashlights
100 x 50 x 25 cm clear ice blocks.

- Production Technology
- An industrial robot equipped with a drill and a flashlight alternates between carving the ice block and illuminating it from different angles. The target geometry for the CNC milling is design algorithmically so that when the spotlight is placed on a specific location, the ice refracts lightrays to a predefined caustic image: “+2℃” on the wall. A timelapse camera records the few weeks of melting, and the slowly unfolding morph.
- Design Challenge
- Where the artwork was inherently a physical and material process, the team was distributed across the world. Working virtually with experimental physical research posed a major challenge. Also, when the work was unfolding, capturing it on film was also a challenge: every moment was unique, and there was no way of replaying anything due to the living material.
- Research
- Where the intent of the artwork was to leverage the innate qualities of melting ice as the messenger, it was challenging to find a balance between the "idealised" use of technology with this amorphous material. The computational design of the lens geometry expects perfect planar surfaces, but melting ice is never planar, and the carved surface keeps changing. Loosing control, and embracing the accidental lead to the elegant result.
- Inspiration
- I use advanced technologies to design bespoke experiences, in this case industrial robot and computational design. The aesthetics and the urgent metaphorical meaning of melting ice embodies the qualities I wanted to communicate with the work. I try to celebrate the beauty of nature, but also the human ingenuity in art that makes people think. The spectacular high tech performance, and the resulting melting sculpture should stop us to think where we stand together in facing the near future.
- Project Duration
- The project was developed and exhibited at Sapporo International Art Festival between January 20 and February 11 in the Snow Storage of the Glass Pyramid at Moerenuma Park, Sapporo, Japan.
- Operation Flow
- The artwork unfolds in two stages: First, a robotic performance carves the block of ice, occasionally illuminating the block from different angles with the flashlight. After completion, the block slowly melts, and is captured with a timelapse camera.
