I have tried to create a paradox by reversing the normal way we look at things.  By using a negative image, I created an unfamiliar viewpoint by making ice look hot.  The cracks in the glaciers have become the cracks of a volcano, and the expanses of water have become red-hot land surfaces.  The photographic inversion from positive to negative does not change the actual state of things: water remains water, of course, and ice remains ice.  Nor do the images present a solution to the environmental problem.  Nevertheless, I hope they provide food for thought.  Water is a fundamental element in our daily experience, and it is disconcerting to see it reimagined as heat and fire.  I hope that everyone who sees this image thinks about the harm we are doing to our planet, and reflects on whether they are doing enough themselves to change matters.  It only needs a small effort to change our behavior.  If we do, we are helping to save the planet from the consequences of so much past thoughtlessness.
