The ice carvers I saw on Saturday had amazing skill. They used all sorts of power tools freehand. The web site for the event said that each of the sculptors was given big frozen blocks to work from but I don't see how they could have done some of this without molds. Their efforts ended in gleaming works of fine art, like the surfing chimp below.

ReplyDeleteIt's a treat to watch these carvers at work.
It is hard to understand what makes an artist start working in this medium.
ReplyDeleteYou should ask these people to do an ice portrait of you standing there with your camera.
