‘Perpetual Snow’ is an ongoing project by Gonzaga Gómez-Cortázar Romero that includes performance, video, photography, and installation. It highlights the ephemeral nature of our environment, particularly now, in the context of climate breakdown, where the concept of “perpetual snow” is being challenged by global warming. The piece is formed by multiple layers of snow collected in New York City in various moments in time, starting with the last snow of 2021 in NYC. Stored in the freezer, this snow becomes artificially perpetual and it lasts year after year. Perpetual Snow: Chapter I’ is the first film in the series and it documents the first stages of the piece.
