In this liminal space, photographer Ralph Clevenger captures moments of hunger and hope; as polar bears wait for the ice to freeze over so they can safely venture back onto the tundra for their first real meal in months.
Two dozen photographs capture the frozen tundra surrounding Churchill in Manitoba, Canada. It is early November, and snow is starting to fall across the Hudson Bay, which will begin to freeze over as temperatures drop steadily. By January, the temperature will average −20 °F, too cold for many species to survive, but the right temperature for polar bears to thrive. Once the ice on the bay is solid, the bears can venture out to hunt for seals. What they catch on the ice in spring must sustain them during the summer and fall months, when the ice melts and food is scarce.
ICE BEAR will be on view from February 8, 2024 to May 31, 2024. Learn more about visiting the museum at sbmm.org
