Visit Thyborøn's new art attraction Iskunsten, where industry has become artistry. Throughout the year, you can experience different exhibitions, all with new themes and works - currently, you can experience the exhibition:

Ice Flowers in Bloom:
(30.09.2023 - 05.11.2023)

For a whole year, Anne Marie Nielsen, who works as an ice artist at Ice Art Thyborøn on a daily basis, has been collecting ideas, techniques, and, most importantly, flowers for this exhibition. Thus, she has been looking forward to creating this exhibition for just as long. The culmination of a year's worth of work and anticipation can be experienced when you visit Ice Art's new exhibition "Ice Flowers in Bloom."

As late summer fades outside the doors, trees lose their leaves, and the garden flowers slowly wither, you can enjoy the sight of the many beautiful flowers that Anne Marie has captured and preserved in ice at Ice Art.

The beautiful works were created by Anne Marie Nielsen and Peter Hausgaard Gregersen - some of them even as a collaboration between the two artists.
