Glacial Narratives: Cracks in the Ice is on until Sunday (16 April) at Custom House in Leith (entry on the wharf side) from 11am until 6pm, as part of the Edinburgh Science Festival.
Glacial Narratives: Cracks in the Ice is an innovative and experimental multi-artform exhibition about ice from four artists who have spent considerable time in Arctic environments, and have developed a complementary series of artworks inspired by their experiences. These works will not only raise awareness of the wonder of ice as a material, but will also ask questions about its disappearance. The artists are:
Adam Sebire (https://www.adamsebire.info) – film-maker and video artist
Elizabeth Bourne (https://www.philotera.com/about/) – painter and photographer
Martin Disley (https://martindisley.co.uk) – sound artist, researcher and developer
Mary Walters (https://www.mary-walters.com) – print-maker, multimedia artist and producer of the exhibition
It has been funded by Creative Scotland’s Open Fund, and supported by Tinderbox Collective, University of Edinburgh Department of Geosciences, Scottish Historic Buildings Trust and the University of Svalbard in Norway.
