Ice Follies 2020
Ice Follies is an ad-hoc collective that presents a biennial festival of contemporary and community engaged art on frozen lake Nipissing. Audiences are invited to engage with works situated off shore from the North Bay waterfront and along the shores of Nipissing First Nation. This year the festival occured from February 15th to 29th.
Refract: REFLECT
Destiny Swiderski’s Refract : REFLECT, a part of Ice Follies 2020, is an experiential installation of architecture, local Indigenous narratives, and the natural elements of light, sound, ice and snow. As ice turns back into water, the tectonic ice plates collide to create a geometry of form, light and shadow; creating an intimate gathering space for viewers to contemplate, interact and meet.
Open from February 15th to 29th.
