A frozen monument adrift in time.

Cathedral of Ice captures the reverent silence of the Lemaire Channel, where a pyramidal iceberg rises from mirror-still waters. Shrouded in mist and ethereal backlighting, this symmetrical composition reflects the monumental solitude of the Antarctic, creating an otherworldly focal point for Modern Living Rooms and Meditation Spaces.

From Lens to Code

The silence of Antarctica has a physical presence, broken only by the cracking of shifting ice. With Cathedral of Ice, I aimed to recreate the sensation of encountering a tabular iceberg that seems more like a work of architecture than a geological formation. I created an image that honors the temporary yet timeless nature of these drifting giants by guiding the algorithm through the logic of symmetrical reflection and atmospheric diffusion.
