Realm of Silence approaches the most devastating event in modern history with tenderness and beauty. In her pairing of nine oil paintings and nine poems, Elvire Coriat de Baere has created a
series of reflections with which the eye and mind may engage gently, reflections that honor life and condemn barbarity in the most human ways. In her work, we find a recognition of the darkest
realities of the Second World War, yet simultaneously an affirmation of spirit and compassion, artistry dedicated to the redemption of human grace and dignity. Ms. de Ba禱re has combined
exquisite paintings with poignant verse, bringing new expression to the heretofore silent and unheard, and illuminating the emotional depths of the tortured souls of six million dead.
