「風の旅人 」vol.31(2008年4月発売号)より引用  2006年の1月に四谷の路地裏に小さなギャラリーをオープンして以来、I decided to make holding regular solo exhibitions there the center of my artistic activities.。Each work to be exhibited will be photographed.。For this purpose, I picked up the old twin-lens reflex camera I had been using for the first time in a while.。Until then, I had been shooting my works with a huge 8 x 10 inch camera.、He was fed up with the pace of production, which showed no signs of progressing.。For me at that time, that act was also a return to the origin、It was a new challenge。  The shooting location is in Tokyo、Mainly near Shinjuku。The reason is very simple.。The fact that it is close to my own gallery that I go to almost every day、It is home to Japan's largest terminal station, used by 3 million people a day.。For me, I wanted to take portrait photos.、That alone was a reason to shoot in this city.。 Since then, I have been going out to the city every time I find time.、Find someone you're interested in and ask them to take a photo with you.。Those days have begun。Finding the person to photograph among the people passing by on the street was like counting sand.。However, it is not something as grand as rowing into an unknown ocean.、A simple act of wandering around in an extremely limited area.。It's not like we have exciting encounters every day.。But anyway, I have no choice but to keep walking。Let alone encounter、I decided to believe that thoughts and ideas only follow my two walking legs.。Now that I think about it, I started out focusing too much on the act of ``photographing people.''。
