Over the last 7 years, having spent many weeks on Hokkaido in the depths of winter, Elizabeth Sanjuan’s Silent Snow reveals the symbolism and symmetry of this quiet landscape. As a seeker of mystery and lover of solitude, the quietude of this land, with its watery blues and gentle, enveloping grays, Sanjuan immediately felt an intimate connection with the muted snowscape. Silent Snow urges one to pause, to explore, as Elizabeth does, the lessons of the single tree; strength in solitude and the will to withstand any storm.
Elizabeth Sanjuan is a visual artist whose images examine the people, landscape, and man-made surroundings that define and shape our cultures and communities. Sanjuan reinforces the urgent need to protect the cultural and environmental heritage that defines us all.
