Have you ever imagined what would happen if an ice cube took a life of its own? Wonder no more! Peng Ven Wong is the creator behind the cute webcomics CubeMelt, which has amassed over 185k Instagram followers.
In it, he tells the story of a living ice cube that wishes to do human activities, only to find out that his life is, unfortunately, short. Ven Wong seeks inspiration from his everyday life; from his wife and baby girl, to pop culture and current affairs.
“The philosophy of CubeMelt is ‘life is short’,” the cartoonist explained. “It begets the question of how we are spending each day of our lives. He’s excited to get out of his ice tray every day. Problem is, he starts melting the moment he’s out of the freezer, so lengthy tasks are the literal bane of his existence. The spot of water he’s reduced to invokes laughter, pity, wonder and unexpected blessings to those around him.”
