EPHEMERAL PALACE

Antarctic Peninsula, Antarctica 2012

​Millions of years old but destined to disappear soon, this colossal iceberg—a beautiful sculpture temporarily frozen in time—drifts to the Antarctic Peninsula. Antarctica holds 90 percent of the world’s ice and 70 percent of its freshwater, so if even a fraction of the ice sheet in Antarctica melts, the resulting sea-level rise will completely remap the world, as we know it.

    Iceberg Alley, Antarctica, 2017

    “One of our final expeditions at the end of last year was to Antarctica. It is a continent of contradictions. A place that has both challenged and inspired me.

      Bear Scents

      Yukon, Canada, 2012

      “Every day, this female grizzly would reach high up into her favorite tree and leave her scent for all the other bears in the area. It was no easy feat, but I wanted to capture the look of satisfaction on her face as she rubbed against the trunk. At the beginning of the year, I announced I would be taking a deep dive into my fine art catalogue. Releasing new work for my limited edition series has always been a special part of this artistic journey…I’ve been so fortunate to have my photos hung in collections and museums around the world. Most important to me is the thrill of knowing they hang in the homes and offices of many of you…”
