Galactic Railroad in Reverbration

My thematic work "Reverb+Graphy" is an attempt to visualize images of current scene and past memories that play like reverberations in the brain. To embody this concept, I use prismatic lens filters that produce an amplifying effect. This work is a spin-off of "Reverb+Graphy”.I took as my inspiration the image of "Galactic Railroad", which I became familiar with as a child through Japanese children's literature and animated films in my home country of Japan. I tried to create a poetic and nostalgic atmosphere by using expressions that evoke reverberations and afterimages.
