The Arctic is making a cameo in New York this month, as the Brooklyn Museum houses The Distance Between What We Have and What We Want by Tavares Strachan. "In 2005, Tavares Strachan journeyed to the Alaskan Arctic and worked with a skilled team to extract a single two-and-a-half ton piece of ice from a frozen river. This ice block was shipped to the Bahamas (the artist's birthplace) and exhibited there in hot summer weather, kept cold in a specially designed freezer powered by solar energy," which is now at the museum. The sun keeping the ice freezing? Far out man.
