Cool Glasses: Render

This is it. environmental eyewear

I'm planning on printing ice cube molds for the glasses in flexible 3D printer filament that would allow for easy releases when freezing water inside. I am also going to taper the front frame so it's even easier to remove.
Also the arms of the glasses will be attached to the frame using cold water and a refreezing process, i may create a form of interlocking system to facilitate the union of the three parts.

I hope to document this art piece outdoors, maybe by the Athabasca glacier in northern Alberta to highlight the issue of melting ice masses on Earth and the essential protection they provided us by deflecting the suns rays from warming our oceans or in this case protects our eyes from the same harmful rays of the sun as sun glasses.
