Late 2020, I have been asked by the Antarctic Science Foundation to design lapel pins to gift 32 special founding supporters to the foundation.

In 1911, 32 adventurers set out to explore Antarctica. Today, 32 adventurers will help provide the funds to save it. 1911-1914 journey is famous for the courage and endurance of its 32 expeditioners. Today’s 32 supporters will join the journey to build the Antarctic Science Foundation as a vibrant driver for advancing Antarctic research, conservation and global understanding.

The brief was short and clear. My design should reflect the world’s highest, driest, windiest, coldest, and iciest continent, Antarctica.

I loved the opportunity to design and make the work for Antarctic Science Foundation. And reading, researching and looking at the amazing photos of that great continent inspired me with my version of small silver iceberg.
