In THE POLAR PROJECT, Blumenfeld observes the landscapes and phenomena of the Arctic region and Antarctica. Combining, among others, photographic works and scientific research, the artist explores the specificities of these marine and glacial landscapes in order to provide “a conduit for people to learn about the global and local issues of climate disruption” (Erika Blumenfeld). >>
“The point at which the wonder of natural phenomena begins to awaken the mind and imagination is the point at which art, science and humanity meet, and The Polar Project’s vision is to harmonize these perspectives.” (Erika Blumenfeld) >>
