Fabrications II

It is not surprising that Sugiura Keita was awarded the Bronze Prize at Geisai Art Fair, which is sponsored by Murakami Takashi; Sugiura is one of the most closely watched young photographers in Japan. His mystical black photographs not only capture the vast, rich darkness of Japanese forests, but they also express his realization of the enduring, protective sustenance in Nature. As the forest slowly emerges from the darkness, these images are transformed into profound acts of reverence.
