STATEMENT

My photographs are created by shifting the perspective of the viewer, including myself as the photographer. This is because a subject can be perceived as beautiful by changing the perspective. In other words, beauty is not necessarily associated with the subject. If we assume that, by changing the viewer's perspective, we can transform anything into a beautiful subject.

And the greater the change in perspective, the greater the chance that it will be perceived as beautiful. I thought that, therefore, it would be effective to interpret the way people take things for granted from a different angle. I think by removing the things that everyone places at the center. The world seen from that perspective is beautiful. My photographs present the structure that generates that beauty.

Initially, I was looking for subjects associated with beauty. You could call this the first phase of my photography. My main subjects were Japanese landscapes. However, in the second phase, I transformed subjects into beautiful ones by changing my perspective. The subject here is shiitake mushrooms. Now, in the third phase, I'm trying to verify the reproducibility of this technique with a different subject. The subject is tree bark. From my changed perspective, I can see that this is what I would call "Fluctuation".
