walking back from work I noticed a big Frozen puddle in a car park.

I attempted to make another version of flammable ice using frozen vodka jelly… This also failed.
I also attempted to make the jelly in the fridge. The structure fell apart and I opted for freezing the next batch which helped keep a solid structure.
over the Christmas break I attempted to freeze alcoholic hand sanitizer in a mixture with water to make flammable ice cubes. The mixture failed to freeze and just stayed in liquid form only turning cloudy.
Ordered 3 mounted prints from the Roots collection on 10mm pvc board
As this installation was undertaken at night, the video is very dark however I have made a video to document some of the work taken.
This temporary sculpture deals with the theme of mortality and the limited time each life has. Each ball of ice is suspended by red wool to the branches of a tree. the red wool runs from inside the ice, up to the the trees branch down to the base of the tree where a dominant ice ball connects over 50 strands each leading to a ball of ice.
The larger ice ball represents the heart, the wool represents veins and the suspended ice symbolises life.
This sculpture is only visible for a few hours before the ice melts away and leaves nothing but strands of wool blowing in the wind.
