Glaciers 2.0
Norwegian fjords are formed by massive glaciers, the remains of which can still be found on the high plateaus on the west coast of Norway.
This installation of white sheets is a reminder of the origin of the fjord formations and at the same time of the disappearance of the glaciers due to global warming.
The stark white of the sheets against the rugged textures of the rocks and the natural landscape can highlight the tension between human intervention (represented by the sheets) and natural processes (the rocks and landscape).
