Synopsis:
With the polar nights approaching, my observations had made me question my reason for being in the Arctic, and yet, I was not the only one who had that same question in mind. When icebergs cracked and the sun struggled to rise, I wonder whether the polar bear knew the answers to my questions.
In October 2022, I went on The Arctic Circle artist residency with 27 artists. We sailed together in the Arctic Sea in Svalbard for 15 days. I went without a plan but a camera, so I started documenting the trip.
