This new display by artist Sarah Casey, explores the fragile state of glacial archaeology through delicate, atmospheric work inspired by objects emerging from ice in the Swiss Alps.

Taking its title from the scientific term for receding glaciers Negative Mass Balance reflects on the unprecedented melting of alpine ice, which reveals ancient artefacts preserved for millennia.

These discoveries provide rare insights into the past but also signify environmental change and uncertain futures. 

Through drawing and sculpture, Casey examines these tensions, merging techniques of making and erasure, space and solidity.
