An exploration into the interconnected relationships of an ecosystem; each resident tenuously supported be another. At the apex of our alpine are the quickly receding glaciers. The removal of any signature item would topple the balanced assembly of this sculpture. As the glacial melt water in the top cup evaporates, this work expresses the fate of our alpine ecosystem in real time.
