The drop in temperature to several degrees below zero in Jukkasjärvi, Sweden marks the start of an ephemeral art endeavour. Using frozen water from the Torne River, artists from all over the world visit this small village, 200km north of the Arctic Circle, to create an exclusive art exhibition - Ice Hotel. Each design is created with imagination and hard work, only to melt away under the unforgiving rays of the sun come springtime. All that remains are impressions, memories and photographs.
