Again f maurer reaches into the emotional box of contrasts, from design to photography: cold-warm, hard-soft, light-dark. Each of his luminous "Iceblocks" is unique, as the ice flower surface is applied to the acrylic block by hand, so no two pieces are alike. In contrast to the supposed coldness of the radiant ice block f maurer chooses very warm light, which floods to the back through a recess in the back wall as a warm light, while to the front the light is cool filtered through the translucent material and the ice flowers.
