Resulting from a work in the canteen, the ice cores take place in the space of the city. Photographed, they offer as many ephemeral monuments, subject to the melting of the ice. A way to pay tribute to the moment.
To initiate the workshop, Laurence Cornet, archaeologist and I discovered the scientific project “Mémoire de la Glace”, which was carried out and managed by the Grenoble Alpes University Foundation. The aim is to set up a global bank of ice samples. Ice cores are one of the best ways to learn about the climate of the past.
After a presentation on archaeological cores made of ice and stone, we began to think about what our cores could be. The cook lent us a large freezer in which we stored long tubes in which the students poured different colours, in layers. Unmoulded, these ice cores offered us the surprise of their colours. Like archaeologists, we built a box to store and archive them.
The rest of the workshop was to photograph these ice cores as if they were monuments.
Photographs to be found in the school canteen.
