About the MELT Series:

MELT is a series of photographs by New York-based photographer Tommy Kwak, featuring majestic icebergs off the coast of Disko Island, Greenland. This location, part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Ilulissat Icefjord, is home to one of the world's fastest-moving glaciers, which calves 20 billion tons of icebergs annually.

To capture these images, Tommy chartered a small, nimble boat to navigate close to specific icebergs. The sequences highlight both the inherent beauty of the icebergs and the stark reality of climate devastation from the quickly melting and disappearing mass.
