Piece description from the artist
At the height of the pandemic in 2020, a sailboat glided across the glassy expanse of Lake Washington, not as a passive object but as a vessel of intention. The Space Needle stood in the background, a silent sentinel of aspiration, a beacon toward an uncertain future.
On the weathered sail, a Black Lives Matter flag waved—a symbol of a movement, battle-worn yet unyielding. Misunderstood by ignorance and met with hate, the movement persisted, its message carried forward by brave souls who dared to sail with purpose.
Location: Lake Washington, WA 2020
San Herman’s artistic journey began in the quiet moments of childhood when the world first revealed itself as a canvas of infinite possibility. Over the years, art has been his constant companion—a profound source of inspiration, growth, and self-discovery.
In 2015, Sanzei made the deliberate choice to immerse himself in the world of photography, a decision that would profoundly shape his creative path. For him, photography is more than a medium; it is a sanctuary, a meditative practice that offers solace and a deeper understanding of the world. It is not merely about making images but about exploring the essence of existence—seizing those fleeting, often unnoticed moments that hold the quiet magic of life.
His camera has become an extension of his being, a tool for personal growth, and a means to express his unique perspective. Each click of the shutter is a step further into the intricate tapestry of his existence, a testament to his ongoing journey of artistic and personal enlightenment.
