In the Japanese aesthetic sense, beauty resides not in the form and splendor of the object itself, but in the immaterial elements such as shadows, blank spaces, and presence that it creates. For example, the soft light that filters through shoji screens, the luster of lacquerware seen in the darkness of a tea room, or the silence created by the space between rooms - the relationship between “light and shadow” and “the visible and the invisible” is important to Japanese beauty.

I am a Japanese street photographer.
I'm shooting my town, street, and casual days.
Sometimes I also take still lifes.
