BIOGRAPHY
武蔵野美術大学視覚伝達デザイン学科卒。2017年に活動をスタート。日常の気づきを元に、絵画や映画など様々なものからインスピレーションを得て構築される “作られた” 写真を制作。現代社会を客観的に見つめながら、シニカルに淡々と意味深な瞬間を作り出し、日常において私たちにささやかな視点の転換を投げかけている。2021年「JAPAN PHOTO AWARD 2021」Patricia Karallis賞受賞。2022年「VOCA展2022」上野の森美術館。
A graduate of Musashino Art University, Department of Visual Communication Design. System of Culture’s project began in 2017, creating “fabricated” photographs based on everyday realizations, constructed by drawing inspiration from various things such as paintings and films. While objectively observing contemporary society, the artist cynically and impassively creates meaningful moments, prompting us to shift our perspective subtly in our daily lives. Winner of the Patricia Karallis Prize at the “JAPAN PHOTO AWARD 2021” and has also exhibited at the “VOCA Exhibition 2022” at The Ueno Royal Museum in 2022.
