Seaman states, "The Last Iceberg is one piece of a larger project entitled "Melting Away" which documents the polar regions of our planet, their environments, life forms, history of human exploration and the communities that work and live there.

Nick Cave once sang, "All things move toward their end." Icebergs give the impression of doing just that, in their individual way much as humans do; they have been created of unique conditions and shaped by their environments to live a brief life in a manner solely their own. Some go the distance traveling for many years slowly being eroded by time and the elements; others get snagged on the rocks and are whittled away by persistent currents. Still others dramatically collapse in fits of passion and fury.

The Last Iceberg chronicles just a handful of the many thousands of icebergs that are currently headed to their end. I approach the images of icebergs as portraits of individuals, much like family photos of my ancestors. I seek a moment in their life in which they convey their unique personality, some connection to our own experience and a glimpse of their soul, which endures."

These images were made in both the Arctic regions of Svalbard, Greenland, and Antarctica. Seaman's first-ever solo museum exhibition took place at the prestigious National Academy of Sciences in Washington, DC, December 1, 2007 through June 1, 2008.

This long-awaited publication, the artist's first monograph, is finally available and worth the wait.

Seaman states, "The Last Iceberg is one piece of a larger project entitled "Melting Away" which documents the polar regions of our planet, their environments, life forms, history of human exploration and the communities that work and live there."

amille Seaman is an award-winning American Photographer, best known for her evocative Polar images. On icebergs, Camille says she approaches her images as portraits of individuals: ‘I seek a moment in their life in which they convey their unique personality, some connection to our own experience and a glimpse of their soul which endures.’

Camille has been photographing the Polar Regions for about ten years. It all started rather serendipitously when her flight form San Francisco to La was over booked and she was offered a free return flight if she would give up her seat. As it was Alaskan Airlines she decided to fly to Alaska. After getting over the cold - something she wasn’t really prepared for, she fell in love with the place, and has been to a polar region every year since. Now she says she gets withdrawal symptoms if she doesn’t go. Not that there's much chance of that, she's off as Photographer in Residence on a ship going to Greenland for August and September.
