Where I live in upstate New York it snows so much that it has to be consolidated into large piles. This is most noticeable in places like parking lots. Long after winter has ended and the snow elsewhere has melted, these mounds stick around, isolated and anomalous. While shopping in spring I come across them. Transfixed by their ability to confound scale, they take on the appearance of miniature mountain ranges. Like an iceberg that has floated into warmer waters, I have taken to documenting these temporal, receding models.
