Propelled by the urgency of addressing climate crisis, the research identifies ice-core laboratories as important historical sites. It posits that an understanding of the narratives embedded in these sites can enable the production of contemporary artworks, and that an material engagement with these works will lead to a better understanding of our past and present interactions with the world we live in.
