“Nothing is ever the same twice because everything is always gone forever and yet each moment has infinite photographic possibilities."

~ Michael Kenna

There is a quiet, otherworldly beauty in Michael Kenna's photographs of Hokkaido. The snowy landscape transforms completely under its soft, white blanket, smoothing out the edges of the world and silencing the usual sounds of life. It is a landscape that feels both eternal and fleeting: each snowfall creates a new composition, a fresh frame of nature’s artistry, waiting to be noticed, captured, and treasured.
