Velocity and Hidden Treasure



Art Suite 308

Jens Dyvik & David Luxembourg

Childhood memories of building snow fortresses and icy castles come alive as you enter Velocity and Hidden Treasure. This snow filled suite creates an Arctic playground that will remind you of a fairy tale. Climb up the snow hill and slide down around the snow chute, but don't slide too quickly as you will miss the hidden treasure. Icy stalagmites will guide your way through, as you leave this suite feeling like a child.

Jens Dyvik and David Luxembourgh come back from Holland to ICEHOTEL for the second time and invite us to explore our playful sides.

Exploration has been the risks that Jens and David have taken. David vividly remembers having second thoughts about walking on a frozen lake in Eindhoven, hoping it was completely frozen. Jens has begun a six month research trip and laughs as he suggests he may have to extend it another six months.
