About the Item

A Monument for Ice takes the vastness of glaciers and presents a monument that asks the viewer to look into rather than look out to the subject. It becomes ahypothetical tribute to ice as if viewed in the future during a time when glaciers have long melted into the seas. A hazy blue video and sound gives the ice model life rather than act as a screen. Matt Frieburghaus records sensory experiences and uses digital processes to explore relationships between sight and sound. His work has exhibited at festivals, galleries, and museums including Boston Cyberarts Gallery, Bronx Calling: The Second AIM Biennial, Everson Museum of Art, Festival Miden, Field Projects, FILE, Garrison Art Center, Hudson Valley Center for Contemporary Art, Matteawan Gallery, Newhouse Center for Contemporary Art, and Verge Art NYC. He has exhibited at university galleries including Foster Gallery at the University of Wisconsin, Eau Claire, Hartell Gallery at Cornell University, Lowe Art Gallery at Syracuse University, and Work • Ann Arbor at the University of Michigan. Matt’s most recent adventure took him to Iceland where he spent a month roaming thelandscape recording video and sound. He received an MFA in Computer Art fromSyracuse University, a BFA in Animation from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design, and an AFA in Graphic Communications from St. Louis Community College. He is Associate Professor of Digital Media at Marist College.
