About The Japanese Forest Fotografia

El bosc japonès està pres des d’una perspectiva religiosa japonesa. Una de les religions antigues japoneses és l'animisme. L’animisme és la creença que les criatures no humanes, la natura morta (minerals, artefactes, etc.) i les coses invisibles també tenen intenció. La fotografia és similar a això. Masaru Eguchi està disparant alguna cosa que fa sentir en el tema. Els arbres, l’herba i els minerals senten la voluntat de la vida. I fins i tot artefactes com les preses que van deixar a la natura durant molt de temps senten la voluntat. De la mateixa manera que veureu la naturalesa intacta, el futur contemplarà els paisatges actuals.

Unique Properties: "The Japanese Forest" is taken from a Japanese religious perspective.
In addition, the more it explores the unique perspectives of Japan, the more universal and true nature appears.
The nature in this work is the scenery seen by ancient people, modern people, and future people.
Dimensions & Packaging: The camera used in "The Japanese Forest" is NIKON Df. Retouch uses Adobe CC.
Tags: Japan, Photo, Nature, Mountain, Forest, Tree, Green, Landscape, Sustainable, Ecology
Production Technology: The technology required for "The Japanese Forest" is digital retouching. Digital retouching has made it possible to achieve both nostalgia and newness. With this work, He was able to create colors that could not be achieved with film.
Design Challenge: The difficulty with this project is that forests are decreasing in Japan. Japanese forests were destroyed by economic growth in the 1960s. Replanted with fast-growing trees, Japanese forests have become similar.
Research: Type of study: animism, eight million gods. Research purpose: To preserve the existing landscape in the future. Methodology: photography. Tools: Japanese classic books. Influence of design: The more unique the country landscape, the more universal the beauty.
Inspiration: One of the beginnings of Japanese religion is the "Yaoyorozu-no-kami". "Yaoyorozu-no-kami" is the belief that there is a god in all things in nature, and it is introduced in foreign countries as "Animism" or "Shinto". Shooting is similar to "Animism". Trees, minerals, and dead grass feel the will of life, and even if an artifact like a dam is left in nature for a long time, it will feel the will of life. Just as we see untouched nature, the future people see the current scenery.
Project Duration: The project was created between 2013 and 2015. And it was released on eguchimasaru.com.
Operation Flow: This work reminds the user of the view of nature stored in the gene. This work suggest a discussion about what is needed for the future art. This is the role of the work.
