Experiencing Interruptions?

A Week In The Ice House

An intimate portrait of two artists working in a nineteenth-century converted icehouse in the waning light of December 2023. A meditation on light, sound, and color, “A Week in the Icehouse” invites the viewer to slow down and observe the unique artistic practice and partnership of EveNSteve while engaging with an energy of place. Taking place in and around the historic Corn Hill district in Truro, Cape Cod, this experimental film is an artwork about the practice and play of making art.
