Master ice sculptor and chef Jeff Tarrant shows us his take on the ancient art of ice carving.
Jeff uses a block of ice made especially for sculpture – frozen over an extended period of time using filtered water. The ice is crystal clear with absolutely no air bubbles, ensuring the ice won’t crack under pressure.
Using specialised tools including an ice chisel and dye grinder, he tests his skill and patience. In this segment, Jeff creates one of his favourite sculptures - the ‘Angel Fish’.
Jeff has been ice carving for over 15 years and has represented Australia at the ‘Winter-Lude’ ice sculpture competition in Canada.
