Homage to the Glacier
A collaborative exhibition showcasing the works of sculpture Peter Bremers and painter Jim Schantz, Homage to the Glacier was inspired by a trip the two took to Iceland in 2023. Through their work, the duo glorify these colossal figures, while reminding us of the effect of the world upon them through climate change.
