Ottawa, November 2024 –
“Mountain Glacier” just released
This new sculpture is part of the Earth, Air, Fire and Water Collection of Leslie Hossack’s series INFERNO. The works in this series expose objectively measurable aspects of climate change such as retreating glaciers, hazardous air quality, unprecedented wildfires, soaring temperatures, melting Arctic ice, and rising sea levels. Although these works are abstract, they are accurate representations of scientific records.

“Mountain Glacier” is fabricated from 30 separate pieces, each of a different height. These represent the annual retreat of world glaciers (glacier mass balance) from 1994 to 2023.
