Fisheye’s project Permafrost explored the complex realities of the global climate crisis, inviting visitors to reflect on the delicate balance between nature and human impact. The installation connected striking visual forms with timely environmental themes, creating an experience that engaged and captivated its audience.
Permafrost—the permanently frozen layer beneath the earth—has often been called the “sleeping giant” of climate change. As temperatures rose, this once-frozen ground began to melt, releasing hidden gases that impact our ecosystems, while also revealing ancient DNA, microbes, and fossils. Visitors encountered a reminder of both the fragility and the deep history of our planet.
