Glacier Portraits

 

Location: Sólheimajökull, Iceland

These pictures were in a group photography exhibition in the Kaleidoskop gallery in berlin, www.kaleidoskop-art.com

Crawling, shifting, advancing and retreating.
Grinding rocks, shaping land, sparing nothing.
Swallowing what rests on it, eventually spitting it out again.
Sliding, cracking, building death-traps.
A giant block of ice in a constant renewal… ever changing, yet the same.

It’s hard to verbalize the feeling you get when pressing your spikes against this terrifying but beautiful thing.
To visualize that feeling is even harder…
