Mind boggling ice building at the 2007 Snow and Ice Festival in Harbin China
Ice sculpture is a beautiful yet temporary art form. Countless hours went into many of these amazing creations only to have them melt away. Luckily, they’re preserved through photography for us to marvel at for ever.

This is so beautiful and I wonder how they got the color if they dyed the ice or if there are lights.
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful ice sculpture. Do they have lights behind the sculpture to give off the colors? Beautiful art work that takes patience, talent, and skills.

ReplyDeleteThis truely is an amazing sculpture. I love all ice sculptures but the fact that this is a building is a mind boggling thought. The fact that they construct something so beautiful and then it will just melt away is hard for me to get around. I am a pack rat and keep everything. It is hard for me to say goodbye to anything with meaning to me so I don't know how I could do that as the sculpter. This goes back to chapter 1 with pictures. It is great that we can keep the memory of this by pictures.
ReplyDeleteThis is a very beautiful piece. The way the artist uses the different colors in detail really brings the sculpture to life. I wonder how much time it took them to get the colors right for this piece? Again very nice.
ReplyDeletewow! this is pretty cool! a very nice piece of ephemeral art. very nice!
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful. In Alaska each year a hotel is created entirely out of ice and people actually stay there overnight. Im not sure how comfortable ice beds would be lol
ReplyDeletebeautiful, but I wonder the mess when it's melting.
