Ice sculpture
Ice sculpture is a form of sculpture that uses ice as the raw material. Sculptures from ice can be abstract or realistic and can be functional or purely decorative. Ice sculptures are generally associated with special or extravagant events because of their limited lifetime.
The lifetime of a sculpture is determined primarily by the temperature of its environment, thus a sculpture can last from mere minutes to possibly months. There are several ice festivals held around the world, hosting competitions of ice sculpture carving.
Examples of use of -ice
1. By George Erdosh There are three kinds of ice cream÷ cheap ice cream, good ice cream, and great ice creams.
2. The ice exists in pristine, crystalline ice and radiation–damaged amorphous ice.
3. Perennial ice cover is ice that survives the summer melt, consisting mainly of thick multiyear ice floes that are the mainstay of the Arctic sea ice cover.
4. Here both are adjectives for ice. Ëĺäîâ$';é is used when something is made of ice by nature (ëĺäîâîĺ ďîëĺ; ice field); when referring to something on the ice (like ëĺäîâŕH'; äîđî';ŕ –– the ice road –– over Lake Ladoga during World War II); when referring to action connected with ice (ëĺäîâîĺ ďëŕâŕí';ĺ –– Arctic navigation); or when referring to some instrument or machine that deals with ice (ëĺäîâ$';é ňîďîđ; ice axe). ËĺäH';íîé is the word more commonly used in everyday speech.
5. It refers to things made of ice by man, like ëĺäH';íîé äîě (ice house), ëĺäH';íîĺ öŕđńňâî (ice kingdom) or even ëĺäH';íîé '3;';';–'3;ĺí (Big Ben ice sculpture). It is also used for things covered in ice (ëĺäH';íŕH'; ęđ$';řŕ; ice–covered roof) and anything that is icy cold.
