Amph, Nepal, 2016 Christopher Parsons joined forces with a research team to study glaciers and permafrost in the Sagarmatha region of the Himalayas. Samples were cultured and analysed by a microbiologist, and revealed the microbiological dynamics and organisms in the glacier environment that are invisible to the naked eye. Parsons displays these microscopic elements alongside the Nepalese landscape, offering the viewer multiple perspectives of the life sustained by the mountains and water, underlining the need for preservation
