Photography is the art and science of capturing light \u2013 Jean Brundrit<\/h2>\n

In December 2019 Jean Brundrit travelled to Antarctica<\/a> aboard the South African research and supply vessel, the S.A. Agulhas II.<\/a><\/em> Jean took photos with a lens made of ice. Most of the images within \u201cOver the Horizon\u201d were made with ice lenses (although there are a few photographs taken with conventional camera technology as well).<\/p>\n

Jean is an artist and Associate Professor in the Department of Fine Art at the University of Cape Town<\/a>, South Africa where she teaches photography. She is interested in the advances of visualizing technology and the opportunity that these developments present in making things never observed before, visible. In \u201cOver the Horizon\u201d she combines this interest with an area she has been exploring in her art practice -that of climate change and global warming.<\/p>\n

So how does ice see the world? Is the horizon always clear? Jean Brundrit takes this one step further.<\/h5>\n
