"A sound-echo performance under the 30 metre high ice-face of the Canada glacier, located in Taylor Valley, Dry Valleys, Antarctica. The event consists of simple performer tasks—walking cycles, voice shouts and stone bangs producing echo-effects off the glacial ice-wall.
The event was realised at 00.30am, with the assistance of an 8 member research team based in the valley during the summer phase of continuous daylight."

Mast and wires appear as a shifting, illusory graphic outline against a background of ice & intermittent snow-drift.
An ironic take on the magnetic attraction of the 'ice' for adventurers, explorers, artists and scientists.
