Ice IH Icosahedron

A 20-sided sculpture reflecting the improbability and beauty of crystalline water in its most wondrous form.

The Ice IH Icosahedron is a 20-sided sculpture inspired by the hexagonal crystal lattice of ice, known as Ice Ih, which forms naturally in Earth’s atmosphere. Under the right conditions, water crystallizes into delicate snowflakes, each unique in its appearance yet following a strict structural organization. This sculpture captures the intricate beauty of snowflakes, reflecting the fragility and wonder of Earth’s ability to create winter’s magic. The installation invites viewers to contemplate the improbability of crystalline water and the delicate balance required for its formation, offering a moment of reflection on the natural wonders that surround us.
