Signs of Change

Signs of Change was a solo exhibition  at the Grunt gallery in Vancouver. It consisted of of photographs of past ice text projects plus an offsite component of new words made of ice.  Four text piece were installed in the urban landscape on a weekly basis. The consequent melting was documented by time-lapse photography and edited into short videos such as Consume and Denial. Each word was pertinent to the site and spoke to our need to subjugate nature and to dominate the environment. At the end of the project I asked people to make a sentence from the words such as: I consume logic and justify denial.
