## Caption

This past weekend at Harvard's #ARTSFIRST festival, the John Harvard Statue melted.

This ice and time-based installation, 'Sublimation,' designed by harvardgsd students, Akshay Goyal, Scott Valentine, and Jiyoo Jye, explored connections between monuments, #climatechange, #ephemerality, and public response.

Supported in part by a student #sustainability grant, Sublimation sparks discussion about natural monuments that are disappearing and the role #publicart can play in tackling issues of climate change. #GreenHarvard #Art #Design #Sculpture 📷: greenharvard
