Snow Pallet is an artwork where fluorescent paint has been applied to the back of an object in order to express the snow’s vivid reflection by the snow’s surface. It is an installation work that from time to time changes the landscape according to the amount of snow and sunlight, and by a number of objects of different heights.

“The disc style was placed with the frame style object in the same space in the first time. That will be a new harmonious space of the collaboration between 2 types of the objects and snowfall on trees.” – Toshihiko Shibuya
