EPHEMERAL PALACE

Antarctic Peninsula, Antarctica 2012

​Millions of years old but destined to disappear soon, this colossal iceberg—a beautiful sculpture temporarily frozen in time—drifts to the Antarctic Peninsula. Antarctica holds 90 percent of the world’s ice and 70 percent of its freshwater, so if even a fraction of the ice sheet in Antarctica melts, the resulting sea-level rise will completely remap the world, as we know it.
