Land of Tranquility
I grew up in the natural environment of northern Japan with four distinct seasons.
The snow season is the one i like the most. It starts at the end of November and last till the end of March. People are waiting for the spring, having dialog with the snow in the meantime.
My work is composed of different elements, the ground, the horizon, and the sky.
Those landscapes are deeply engraved in me. I always felt a connection with those spaces. I can feel the beauty, the silence, the time unraveling, watching these scenes.
“Photography” is my favorite art to expose those notions to others. My images are composed of the minimum elements. Clear perception of the horizon is a main part of my work.
I have always been working with film photography. Each step of the process allows me to enjoy the scene again and again. As i continue to work, I can imagine the snow falling quietly at each spot in the following seasons.
