John Meader

John Meader, Weeping Ice, a Warm Winter Day, monotype on paper, 37 x 30 in., 2019.

Artist’s Statement 

This photograph was taken on a very warm winter’s day, 30 December 2022. It didn’t feel like winter, yet it was a beautiful day. I saw this shard of ice and as soon as I picked it up it started to rapidly melt, the water dripping off like tears. The whole situation felt wrong, it felt like the very ice knew it was wrong. It all felt out of balance. It was beautifully sad.
