RAWSTREETDOWN

Raw edge displayed everyday street scenes captured in Osaka, Japan.

Yoshitaka Kono is an Osaka born London resident whose work explores the extremes of dark and light. In this new collection, his pictures of raw edge displayed everyday street scenes from Osaka Japan catches the vibrancy of the city seen through a unique perspective which distills everyday life into utopian moments of sublime abstraction of light and dark.

Immerse yourself in the energy of his vision where he captures the essence of the streets and enjoy the total obliviousness of their denizens when held in his unique gaze.

Yoshi embraces minimalism in a way to avoid what he describes as â??mid-tone saturationâ??, his work has a vibrancy which is highly evocative and subtle.
