Description: DescriptionPlease understand that this is a used item only, although it is in near-unused and clean condition. Born in 1980, Shiga began expressing herself by feeling a sense of physical discomfort in our comfortable and automated daily life and society. While working in Japan and abroad, Shiga first visited Miyagi Prefecture in 2006 to participate in an exhibition organized by the museum. Since then, Shiga has returned to Tohoku many times in search of a closer relationship with the land. It was there that he encountered the pine forests of Kitagama*, facing the Pacific Ocean.While living in Kitagama, Shiga worked as a community photographer, recording festivals and other official events and creating oral histories. These experiences greatly influenced his work. Shiga has created each work by breathing in the air of Kitagama to its fullest and exhaling it quietly for a long time, so that the photographs do not become detached from his own body of work. This is not to represent the uniqueness and uniqueness of Kitagama conceptually, but to capture the traces of the body in relation to the land of Kitagama. Therefore, the works are not the artist's answers to the story of Kitagama, but rather the big questions that Shiga has been asking himself and pursuing regarding what the medium of photography is, and what it means to live and express oneself with the land. These questions are sure to be heard as an earnest voice in our current society, which is facing many difficulties.(*)Kitagama: Name of a mansion in Shimomashida, Natori City, Miyagi Prefecture All my products are 100% Authentic.Please feel free to contact us if you have any question.
