About this work

This print, *Black Ice*, is an abstract piece by Anya Gallaccio. It shows a wintery scene that feels like a forest after snowfall. Though it’s a print, it borrows ideas from her bigger works with real ice and fruit. Gallaccio’s art often changes over time. She lets materials like ice melt or apples rot instead of keeping them forever. Here, the icy look hints at that same idea of fleeting moments.
