Marek Ranis - Cieplo Zimno

Through sculpture, video, painting and installation,
Marek Ranis explores the emotional and environ
mental extremes that shape our world. Ciepo
Zimno, meaning "Warm Cold", reflects on human
fragility, displacement and resilience amid ecologi
cal and social transformation.

The publication surveys over twenty years of the
artist's practice investigating the tensions between
hope and despair, belonging and exile. Often created
through long-term engagement with scientists, local
communities and landscapes in the Arctic and other
climate-vulnerable regions, his work lies at the
junction of art, science and climate consciousness.
Contributions by Julie Decker, Jonathon Keats and
Jae Emerling situate Ranis's poetic yet critical works
within a broader meditation on change, displace
ment and the delicate balance between human
experience and the environments we inhabit
