Ice Harvesting - 2 - Mining Congelation Ice from Lava Tube Caverns
My sister once told me that (after growing up in an LGBT house) she considered her ethnicity to be ‘gay’, not because she was herself but because it was its own culture. I feel similarly about ‘arts’; whether you are an artist, a thinker, a craftsperson, a builder, a designer or even scientist— it is a lifestyle, of ‘happy-doing people’.
Hannsjörg Voth’s performance of Stone Boat (1978 -1981)
Nine trees driven into the seabed, a 14mx14mx12m pyramid rests 3.5m above the water and holds a massive stone— from which, over the course of a year, the artist would chisel a boat. Monthly feasts and a final ceremony of 15 people constituted its sole exposition, being dismantled upon completion.
as noxious and shocking as this old potter’s smog may be, it is less toxic than the pollution of today.
