Thanks for comments... Regarding contrast... well, the origianl print is 16X20 in Ilford Gallery FB and much better-what you expect- than this scanned image... I'm sorry you missed original print

is an art of geometry and an art of lines as well as planes and

surfaces. All architecture has its own unique feature, shape, style

and appearance. Architecture tends to be well decorated in the same

way that people use make up and dress up for their beauty. Most

people, however, tend to neglect the aesthetic aspect of the

architecture, they are just considering the architecture as a useful

building, not artwork. This is the reason why I have an interest in

architecture, and I have chosen architecture as my subject in the

same way that portrait photographer choose people. Every one of my

photograph is touched by my unique sensitivity to the building as a

living object for human being. I want to express my concept and my

point of view about aesthetics through these architectural

photographs, and I want to re-create two dimensional artwork from the

architect's three dimensional artwork with my simple, abstract and

graphic way of view. Especially, I want to express some contrasting

subjects in my images. For example, the contrast between old and new,

geometric, graphic shape and composition, and contrast in tonality.

The reason why I chose black and white photography is to express an

extremely high contrast in tonality of each piece of architecture. In

two dimensional photograph, I have tried to capture the powerfully

dynamic shapes of architecture and stylistic aspect as important

details. These buildings that I took in photographs are pretty

familiar to people who live in San Francisco, but the building in my

photographs might be unfamiliar to them. Even though I choose a wide

variety types of architectures, I have manipulated my camera to

reveal that design with my concept.> Please feel what I felt at those

moment... Thank you. #These images were exhibited at De Young Fine

Art Museum of San Francisco in 2000 as my solo exhibition 'Abstract

Portrait Series'...

architectures, I have manipulated my camera to reveal that design

with my concept. Please feel what I felt at those moment... Thank

you. #These images were exhibited at De Young Fine Art Museum of San

Francisco in 2000 as my solo exhibition 'Abstract Portrait Series'...

Architecture is an art of geometry and an art of lines as well as

planes and surfaces. All architecture has its own unique feature,

shape, style and appearance. Architecture tends to be well decorated

in the same way that people use make up and dress up for their

beauty. Most people, however, tend to neglect the aesthetic aspect of

the architecture, they are just considering the architecture as a

useful building, not artwork. This is the reason why I have an

interest in architecture, and I have chosen architecture as my

subject in the same way that portrait photographer choose people.

Every one of my photograph is touched by my unique sensitivity to the

building as a living object for human being. I want to express my

concept and my point of view about aesthetics through these

architectural photographs, and I want to re-create two dimensional

artwork from the architect's three dimensional artwork with my

simple, abstract and graphic way of view. Especially, I want to

express some contrasting subjects in my images. For example, the

contrast between old and new, geometric, graphic shape and

composition, and contrast in tonality. The reason why I chose black

and white photography is to express an extremely high contrast in

tonality of each piece of architecture. In two dimensional

photograph, I have tried to capture the powerfully dynamic shapes of

architecture and stylistic aspect as important details. These

buildings that I took in photographs are pretty familiar to people

who live in San Francisco, but the building in my photographs might

be unfamiliar to them. Even though I choose a wide variety types of

architectures, I have manipulated my camera to reveal that design

with my concept. Please feel what I felt at those moment... Thank

you. #These images were exhibited at De Young Fine Art Museum of San
