Response to Week 7

Nicole Dextras---Nicole's time based public art works using ice sculptor are interesting to the particular snowy regions she places them in. Using words like VIEW and TRUTH are ironic, considering that the snow will eventually melt thus creating a diminish to the the literal representation of truth and to the metaphor that comes with that word. (whatever that means) The word VIEW slowly melting over time is also an interesting visual because out of the VIEW melting, another landscape will take shape, and by view melting part of that landscape is disappearing. Theres an element of adding and subtracting that is key in her work.
