À propos du créateur
What interests me the most is the hidden and invisible structure in society. The structure is working everywhere we live. It’s born out of our own desires, though it can often suppress and depress ourselves. I call it “Invisible Machinery”. It’s embodied in the customs, the social systems or even the architecture. It appears in our own behavior, gestures and figures. “Invisible Machinery” lies on the outside and even on the inside of us. It’s invisible but the signs are everywhere around us. I think a photo could capture it so well. A photo is static and excludes time and life from the whole reality in front of us, i.e., photography is the art of death. To photograph is nothing other than to “stop”. Therefore, it can perceive things that are hidden in our continuously flowing lives ; it is a secret ceremony going back and forth between “visible” and “invisible.” No matter what I photograph, every one of my pictures is inevitably based on the concept of “Invisible Machinery”.
