atural organic shapes formed at the phase boundary on a lake surface responding to waves and temperature flux. Rendered with a 12mm lens and devoid of context this could be any scale, considered from a few feet or from high altitude. This work explores ideas concerning simultaneous similarities and variations in a complex environment, a manifestation operative on many levels.
“Snow Ice (white ice) forms when the weight of a snow cover is sufficient to overcome the buoyancy of the ice supporting it, the ice surface becomes submerged and water flows through cracks in the ice and saturates the snow, which then freezes.” - ALISON (Alaska Lake Ice Snow Observatory Network)
