UNDERWATER DANCE
.
It´s a disaster scenario looming on the horizon. The melting of the Thwaites Glacier, one of the largest in the world, has been followed by satellites for 25 years. Today, it decreases by 500 meters a year. It must be said that it is as big as a quarter of France and its melting is already responsible for 4% of the rising waters. This huge glacier of the West Antarctic is indeed gnawed from the inside. Scientists have realized that a huge 10-by-4 cavity has dug beneath its surface, releasing 14 billion tonnes of melted ice in the oceans. Indeed, if this huge ice cube melted completely, the sea level could then increase by 65 centimeters. As a domino effect, it will bring with it other Antarctic glaciers, which will also melt, with the key to a rise in sea level of more than 3 meters.

We need a global and lasting awareness. We are all crew members of the Earth spaceship. We can’t remain so passive in front of climate change.
.
We are artists and we create in territories that seem hostile to man. From the abyss to space, from zero to infinity, human has always surpassed his knowledge, perhaps to know himself better and even better, and thereby to expand his instinct for survival.
