The exhibition 'The Meaning in the Snow' at the Mudec, Museum of Cultures in Milan, offers a unique journey through the cultural significance of snow-covered regions from Patagonia to Greenland. Visitors are welcomed to a total white setup by Studio Grace, requiring shoe covers to preserve the installation, which showcases about one hundred artifacts divided into four thematic sections. Curators Sara Rizzo and Alessandro Oldani emphasize the exhibit's cross-cultural approach, linking various traditions and scientific insights related to snowy environments.

The exhibition features a range of items that highlight both indigenous knowledge and contemporary interpretations of life in snowy regions. From ancient paintings and contemporary video installations to ethno-historical artifacts, attendees can explore the diversity of cultures that inhabit these cold climates. Notable pieces include a Sami shamanic drum from the Museum of Civilizations in Rome and an impressive reconstruction of an ancient hunting gear set from Patagonia, complete with a fur mantle, which captivates visitors with its historical depth and craftsmanship.

The immersive experience overcomes geographic boundaries, reflecting on the lifestyles and cultural significance of snow within various communities, including the Inuit from Greenland and the populations inhabiting Tierra del Fuego. The overall aim of the exhibition is to foster a deeper appreciation and understanding of how snowy environments shape cultural identities and knowledge systems, encouraging attendees to reflect on the broader ecological and cultural narratives that arise from these unique settings.
