Below Churning Ice consists of three suspended kinetic sculptures, Churning Icebergs I - III (2019). The sectional aluminum sculptures reference the above/below water aspects of icebergs, while inverting our typical perspective, placing us beneath the ice. 


I designed and installed the sculptures to take advantage of the 23 ft high ceilings, skylight roof, and open balcony so they would reflect natural and artificial light while rotating beyond the traditional confines of the space.
