About Glacier Lament 艺术装置

《冰川挽歌》是一件关于冰川消逝的艺术装置。潘通色卡中列有四款"冰川蓝",然而在真实的冰川中,这种蓝色是多变而流动的。随着冰川消融,这独特的蓝色也一同消失。作品采集并调和了阿拉斯加冰川的蓝色调,将其盛于六十只回收玻璃瓶中,悬置于画布上方。每当一次冰川崩解事件发生,便有一只玻璃瓶坠落。展览结束时,六十只玻璃瓶悉数坠落,在下方的画布上共同绘成一幅画作。

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.
