Dirty ice - Nordenskjöld Glacier, South Georgia - etching 15 framed

Product description

The Nordenskjöld Glacier lies at the head of Cumberland East Bay, on the north coast of South Georgia. Its leading edge has retreated about 1.5km in the last 80 years, and 1 km of that in the last 10 years. Much of its surface is grey with rock and dust from scree slopes on the mountains it flows past.

My work is rooted in landscape – particularly wild, remote, sometimes bleak locations – and a fascination with its small-scale details and textures. I am fortunate to visit some of the world’s most remote and beautiful locations through my work in academic science, studying the interactions between atmosphere and ocean and their role in climate, particularly in the polar regions.
