A biography of iceberg B09B
2018
ICEBERGS HAVE TAKEN ON DRAMATIC NEW MEANINGS IN THE ANTHROPOCENE. THEY HAVE
long been used as metaphors for an immensity present but unseen, but in the
age of anthropogenic warming they also metonymically suggest unstable
icesheets, shrinking glaciers and rising seas. Outside of scientific discourse,
however, icebergs tend to be considered as a collective, interesting both in their
symbolism and materiality, but rarely treated as individual objects with their own
histories and futures.
