Welcome to PLANET SNOW
A Snow-Covered Earth is a Miracle Planet
Sapporo Becomes “Planet Snow,” a Gathering Point for Artworks and New Expressions from Japan and Around the World
サイアフ2027 will imagine Sapporo as a single planetPlanet Snowprompting us to reflect on this planets ways of life as well as history, culture, and the future as a whole.
The theme can be expressed with two phrases in the Ainu language. For those who live in Sapporo, Planet Snow is upas mintar snow garden, and for those visiting from afar, it is upas nociw snow star. Covered in white snow, サイアフ2027 will become the stage for a grand narrative that surrounds the future of humanity and the cosmos.
We look forward to meeting you on Planet Snow, where a multitude of images and ideas will intersect.
