Description

A moment that allows multiple interpretations of which surface gravity is occurring toward. The feeling of being lost in a cubic virtual polygonal space. ------ “A collection of desires”. That is how the great street snap photographer Daido Moriyama described Tokyo. With the Covid-19 disaster, becoming a new parent, and my day job, it has become difficult for me to travel far from home: this has been the driving force behind my motivation to "find the hidden beauty in everyday life”, which has now become my brand in the NFT space. One fine day, I was lucky enough to make time to shoot alone for an entire day without raising children or working at my day job. I boarded a train bound for Tokyo on a half-hearted impulse. The photographs I took featured fragments of Tokyo's architecture, streets, and busy business people as subjects and backgrounds without conscious thought. The images in this collection were shot in Marunouchi, one of Tokyo’s commercial hubs. Since I shot on a weekday, most of the people in town were at work. What left a strong impression on me as I was curating the photos were the intricate patterns and geometric shapes of the architecture, the reflections, and the fashions that stood out in the city. The combination of these elements, many of them spontaneous, resulted in images that would spark a person’s curiosity and imagination. It was like a tanka or haiku: from which multiple interpretations are often possible, with the limited sounds of a single word. I think the reason why I value curiosity so much is because I had experienced a loss of curiosity due to the Covid-19 disaster that prevented me from going out and connecting with my creative side. I also believe that the act of looking at the world with imagination and curiosity in such a way leads to vitality not only in photography but also in daily living. If these images could trigger a sense of wonder in the viewer, I would consider myself to have succeeded in my mission as a photographer.
