Watercolor series created in collaboration with Hamburg based artist Katrin Bethge. Bethge was commissioned by Güntzel to paint landscape formations inspired by the Arctic and Antarctic. The watercolors were made with melted snow from Antarctica as well as melted glacier ice, extracted from 2.2 km depth from the Greenland ice sheet. Both samples were provided by Alfred Wegener Institute Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research.
