“Interaction” aka (Ice hand)

This Happening is a interaction I will create between a ice hand and a or multiple participants. The climax arises when the participant can't connect no longer or the ice hand melts away.
Every interaction between ice and humans is unique what the out come happens to be depends on the participants.

“Charged Reflection” aka (Frozen TV)

This concept consists up of a television which showing nothing but unfocused grey buzzing screen that is incased in a thick ice block.
This work reflects the continuation of the MTV Generation which is still active in todays society. I like to reflect that the television incased in ice symbolizes that the television still prevails even in extreme times.

“Bailout” aka (Frozen pennies)

This Sculpture consists of 10,000 pennies (hundred dollars worth of pennies) and incased in ice. This ice sculpture is based on the idea of the 21 first century economic bailout plan. What is happening to our currency? Where does the money go? How does this effect?
The pennies symbolizes the economy, the ice symbolizes the people in control of the money and the location symbolizes the destiny of the money.

I still have to figure out more details of where “Bailout” should be placed.
