The world,in words and images.

Statement

The world, the everyday, nature’s fluctuations—documenting moments, exploring their terrain.

Even when the world is represented in the finest detail, continuously or in discrete units according to a given legend, we encounter complexities that logic alone cannot explain. I find this when reading a fragment of a topographic map at 1:25,000, or when recording successive moments through a CMOS sensor at 24 or 120 frames per second. Nature’s fluctuations are like the notes between the white and black keys that twelve-tone equal temperament cannot express. They inhabit the space between hare and ke—the festive and the everyday in Japanese folklore. The world appears with each blink, a succession of moments. I want to spend my life documenting and exploring this uncertain, complex world without stripping away its uncertainty or complexity.
