Iceberg

Sailing between the icebergs in West Greenland is like visiting a natural Museum of Modern Art - albeit with a continually evolving and reshaping art collection - like a massive kinetic art installation.
Icebergs - like Japanese cherry blossoms - show both a magnificent beauty and the sadness of finiteness.
After breaking off - or ‘calving’ - from the glacier they will inevitably melt and break apart,
to finally dissolve completely into the surrounding seas.
But not before displaying each a unique shapeshifting display of elegance and design - and often grandeur.


The delicate balance between beauty and decay of witnessing the icebergs is however impacted
by observing the retreat of the glaciers that produce the icebergs.
It’s impossible to ignore the grafted lines on the hills of where the glaciers used to be.
No place on earth where you can watch global warming so visibly and measurably.
