Jakob Kudsk Steensen is an artist working with environmental storytelling through virtual world building, video games, spatial sound and large-scale installations, commissioned by institutions including Fondation Louis Vuitton, Fondation Beyeler, Serpentine and the Mori Museum.
For Tongues of Verglas / Les Langues de Verglas (2022-2023), I digitized the Arolla Glacial Cave in the Swiss Alps. One year later it collapsed. So I went again and we interviewed a glaciologist in her mid-eighties, who went there sixty years ago to document it.

Working with video game technologies allows me to build an archive over time. All the assets—the 3D objects, the sounds—I digitized and collected myself.
