Mellanrum: Mind the Gap



ICEHOTEL Main Hall
 
Lena Kriström, Sweden.
 
‘Mellanrum: Mind the Gap’ is a mood-enhancing voyage that draws visitors down the center of the massive corridor, passing carefully crafted figurative faces, each with a different design and mood.

This is Swedish sculptor Lena Kriström’s 16th season sculpting ice at ICEHOTEL. In addition to sculpting ice and stone, Lena also works with concrete, clay and plaster molding. Her work has been displayed all over Sweden and throughout Europe. Lean leads an ice project for students form the Unit for Landscape Architecture at SLU in Ultuna, Uppsala, Sweden. She brings this group to ICEHOTEL each year to create landscape art the hotel.
