Arrived in Huddinge Centrum after dark to buy food and detergent and saw something glittering around the corner. There had been an ice sculpture competition earlier in the day and the entries had been left standing there. Most of them were rather uninspired, but the winning entry ”Frusen” was a glittering marvel that changed aspect with every new angle as I walked around it—an embracing couple, a sea horse, a deconstructed face, a facetious play with light.

I love the way the artist created multiple facets all over the surface
The name has a wonderful double meaning in Swedish, not really translatable to English. Also an aspect that you tend to note and appreciate :-)
