Color of Icebergs

The Color of Icebergs is an close-up view of one of the icebergs on Spencer Lake.  This stunning abstract art draws you in as you realize that you are viewing ice that's hundreds of years old.  When calving, the dense ice flips over to where the heaver side ends (usually what was on top) up underneath the water leaving the part of the calved iceberg that you see exposing hundreds of year old ice.
