Ablation Zone 6 (Abstract drawing)

About the Item

Ablation Zone 6 (Abstract drawing) Pigment And Ice on Yupo. Unframed. Ablation is a series of drawings that extend the Blue Melt approach into large, long, excessively vertical works. “Ablation” refers to all the ways glaciers lose mass, including melting, sublimation, evaporation, and calving. Peerna starts the drawings by first marking vertical pigment lines onto plastic paper. She then methodically applies water or ice, causing the lines on the surface to melt and drip. The drawing only stops making itself when the water has dried. The resulting drip marks on the works capture the moment when solid turns into liquid, drawing a visual parallel to the moment when ice melts into water. There is already a sense of erasure in the white space surrounding the lines.
