Ice Sculptures of Melting Men by Nele Azevedo - Neatorama

Brazilian artist Nele Azevedo's artwork is cool ... literally! In this art installation, Nele created hundreds of sitting figures out of ice - the installation lasted till the last one melted in the heat of the day:

Climate change metaphors aside, it's a great study on life in general. We burn ourselves up sitting as an audience, watching the show. The unwashed masses.

It was an interesting scene. All figurative sculptures are made of moulds? A good idea to show the sculptures.
We habe been making indoor the ice sculpture shows, mostly in Europe. Hope there is a chance to make one in Brazil in joint efforts with a Brazilian company. For more information, please refer to our website:www.china-ice-sculture.com
