#1. 1st Place Winner: Torii by Ulana Switucha
Torii gates in Japan are elements in the landscape that symbolize the essence of Japanese culture and spirituality. In the Shinto spiritual tradition, Japanese torii gates are a symbol of the transition from the secular world to a sacred space. Honouring the natural realm, the simplicity and shape of a torii in the landscape draws the senses and spirit to embrace nature’s power and beauty. A minimalist approach draws the viewer into peaceful meditation.
