Online Exhibition by eco artist Tatiana Iliina

"The Glacier Collection" is a series of captivating abstracts that celebrates the beauty of the planet's glaciers and draws attention to the fact that most of these glaciers are receding at a rapid pace.

This online exhibition has been conceived by Montreal artist Tatiana Iliina to allow access to as great a number of people as possible.

This painting is entitled "Grinnell Glacier", one of the famous glaciers of Glacier National Park in the U.S. The painting is 30x36" and is painted in acrylics.

Tatiana Iliina's Glacier XV

One of the larger themes of Tatiana Iliina's abstract glacier series is obviously to recognize many of the disappearing glaciers on the planet.

By giving many of the glacier abstracts the name of an actual glacier, Iliina creates a direct tie between the art and the Earth.

By contrast, some of the paintings have been given generic names, such as this one, "Glacier 15".

Tatiana has reserved a number of the paintings to be representative of the concept as a whole. By assigning them only a number, the artist succeeds in giving the art a life of its own.
