Ice Sculptor Carving Eagle Sapporo Canal in beside a canal in Sapporo

Ice Sculptor Carving Eagle Sapporo Canal

by Justin Owen

Bright midmorning light falls through low-hanging gray clouds over a frozen canal in Sapporo. A sculptor stands beside a massive, clear block of ice, chipping away to reveal the wings of an eagle. Snow dusts the heavy winter coat and the ground around the work area. The ice block reflects the pale sky, showing deep internal fractures and smooth carved surfaces. Chunks of translucent scrap ice lie scattered near the sculptor's boots. The negative space around the figure emphasizes the isolation of the task against the vast, overcast winter sky. One shard of ice rests on the edge of the block, catching the diffuse light.
