Black Ice
“It’s been said that Inuits have many words to describe white. As the polar snow caps melt faster than we ever imagined, I wonder how long it will be before we have as many words to describe darkness” - Todd Hido
The intention with “Black Ice” was to focus on the metaphoric expressive power of visual imagery in order to raise a visual cry of despair about the situation of our planet.
This project has been created entirely through Human Intelligence and Sensibility. No AI was involved in its creation.
It is no coincidence I chose the Greenland icebergs as subject matter for this project. Ice has become the measuring device through which monitor the vital signs of a sick planet, and, at the same time, an element that through cultural coding has become a symbol of universal concepts like global warming, Anthropocene and the disruption of the natural balance.
