Full of contradictions, ice is both fragile and destructive; to be frozen is to stand completely still, yet ice is in a constant state of change, expanding and contracting in a vast and complex meteorological network. Weather rendered material, it has the capacity to heighten and alter our sensory perceptions while transforming entire landscapes.

Using a personal collection of photo negatives, acetate and giclée prints, cyanotypes and textured papers, these elements were brought together to form mixed media analogue collages to illustrate an A to Z of ice and its studies.

Field recordings were used alongside photographs as reference material to interpret the phenomena of ice and the language that surrounds it.
