GLACIAL EROSION

Inspired by a camping trip to the outer Hebrides which was aborted by 80mph winds I was interested in extreme weather and how climate change is a big cause in this. In talks with a Glaciologist at the University of Edinburgh I wanted to translate the dramatic changes of melting glaciers in my work. At the center of the collection a four piece tea set made from 100% recycled silver and Scottish bog oak.

Tom Hegen’s Two Degrees Celsius aerial photographs and the documentary Chasing Ice are dramatic visual proof of the disappearing glaciers.
