There’s no future in ice is part of Scents of Solastalgia, a collaborative project that traces the agencies of volatile chemicals through threatened ecologies, draws attention to subtle and overlooked ways ecosystems are disrupted, and explores interspecies and olfactory experiences of ecological loss.
