The Past Sealed Away ...

Picture
The Past Sealed Away: Athabasca Glacier, acrylic on birch panel, 203 cm x 305 cm, 2018
Ice contains no future, just the past, sealed away. As if they're alive, everything in the world is sealed up inside, clear and distinct. Ice can preserve all kinds of things that way- cleanly, clearly. That's the essence of ice, the role it plays. 
                                                                                                                                            ―Haruki Murakami, Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman
