It is Written that Snow is White – 2022

Twenty-four artists respond to A. Škėma’s poem ‘Snow’.

In the silence of snow there is soft beating of wings. The strong delicate feathers collide in the anguished cacophony of a fluttery seagull raid. It melts back into the snowy landscape leaving only a single down feather floating on a frosted earth and the haunting call of a lone gull. For me the single downy feather becomes a kiss from a loved one lost.
