Peyto Glacier

Acrylic sculpture
11.75 x 18.5 x 4 in.
2024 

 

“Peyto Glacier” (2024) is part of the Earth, Air, Fire and Water collection from the
INFERNO series.

Like her previous work, INFERNO is research based. Here Hossack exposes
objectively measurable aspects of climate changes such as retreating glaciers, melting
Arctic ice, rising sea levels, unprecedented Canadian wildfires, hazardous air quality,
increasing world temperatures and so on.

INFERNO is data driven. Although the works are abstract, they are accurate
representations of scientific records. 


“Peyto Glacier” is fabricated from 27 separate pieces, each of a different height. They
represent the cumulative mass balance of this Canadian glacier for the years 1996
through 2022 (relative to 1995).
