This immersive and multi-sensory sculpture invites people inside to participate, rather than merely observe. The reflective quality of the surfaces is disorientating and places us directly within the sculpture. The crunch of slate beneath our feet is echoed in the sound piece that captures glacial movement. Our attention is drawn to the series of small vignettes, featuring illuminated images of different minerals. Mountain is one of several artworks that have resulted from Diane MacLean’s collaborations with scientists working in the field of climate change and mineralogy.
