Planned Accidents by Pipaluk Lake

Pipaluk Lake is an artist who creates sculptures of magma frozen in time. Her exhibition, Planned Accidents, is full of pieces that are fluid, poetic, and that capture magma during a moment of transformation.

Invoking ideas of stalagmites, water, crystals, or rocks, the sculptures are meant to reimagine the preconceived notions of glass being cold and rigid. Instead, her work questions the idea of permanence and impermanence, and gives physical existences to otherwise intangible visions and sensations.

Pipaluk Lake will be exhibited at the Galerie Maria Lund through October 25, 2014.
