Ice House

Artist

Gregory Holm

Physical Description

A small urban house is seen in a nocturnal view set in winter. The house is covered with icicles hang from the gables and over the first floor windows and door. There is no illumination from inside the house, although there are lights in adjacet houses; the house is illuminated by a cool white light that, along with the house, illuminates the chain-link fence to the right and the trees flanking the house.

His eyes bulge out and his mouth is open showing his teeth. He is a pair with 1980/2.291.
