How does light filter our perception? What do icebergs sound like? What does a printout of the chemical composition of water look like?

For her photography project From a Tongue We Are Losing, which is being presented at the Klima Biennale Wien, the artist joined a team of multidisciplinary researchers embarking on a four-month expedition to the ice of the Arctic - a vast white desert in which humans make up only a minute part of the environment. Winants has developed special techniques to capture the unique light phenomena of this special region. She makes the data tangible and emotionally perceptible, highlighting the interdependence of ecosystems.

In the experimental series Time Capsule, which is also presented in the exhibition, Winants explores the phenomena of light and color in the Arctic. These works are prints of photograms onto which forms cut out of ice were applied. While they reveal the structure of the crystals, they also cast a shadow on certain elements that have been present for millions of years.
