Eliasson hopes that the project will \"give feelings to things that are otherwise unemotional\" and encourage the \"big players the state but also the private sector and large companies\" to act.

\"It is so abstract it's so far away Greenland it's literally out of our body and it's in our brain and I wanted simply to change that narrative of the climate from our brain and emotionalise it into our bodies\" the artist told Dezeen.

埃利亚松与地质学家米尼克·罗辛（Minik Rosing）合作 ， 从格陵兰岛的努普·康格鲁阿峡湾（Nuup Kangerlua fjord）水域运送了100吨自由漂浮的冰川冰块 。 这些冰块从冰川上剥离 ， 被发现融化在海洋中 。

该装置将于12月11日开始展出 ， 直到冰层融化 ， 这将取决于天气状况 。 公众可以与冰块互动 ， 观看冰块在他们面前融化 。
