The works seen in Shadows of a Fleeting World reveal a lively and fruitful
exchange between Eastern and Western artistic traditions, expressed in the
medium of pictorial photography, and provide a glimpse into the artistic milieu
in Seattle in the early decades of the twentieth century.

This is not just a pictorial history of the Pacific Northwest, or the United States as it teetered on the brink of The Great Depression and WWII. Rather, Shadows of a Fleeting World is the study and remembrance of soulful expression. Never let your eye mistake the commonplace as unremarkable. Never miss a chance to celebrate the magic formed in a cloud bank, mountain range, lock of hair.
