The Ice Field

The Athabasca Glacier in Alberta Canada is melting. The glacier currently loses depth at a rate of about 5 metres per year and has receded more than 1.5 km and lost over half of its volume in the past 125 years. The problem being, we don't know what ancient pathogens might be melting too.

About Artist

Benjamin Gibson

Benjamin Gibson is a Toronto-based photographer and creative director whose work explores the intersection of grit and beauty in urban landscapes and portraits. With a background in commercial and fine art photography, Gibson’s style is characterized by its raw, unfiltered approach to capturing the human experience. His fascination with street photography began with a desire to tell the stories of everyday people, often overlooked in the hustle and bustle of city life. Benjamin explores the balance between life's grit and life's beauty, convinced one can't exist without the other.
